RE: fans and AC

[Willard Edison <waedison1@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

When the car overheated, the problems started. I'd take it to at reputable
radiator shop and have the cooling system 'boiled out' (probably not the
correct term). It's very possible that some scale or sealant someone who
owned the car before you put in it, broke loose and is now restricting
coolant flow. When I took the heater apart in my 64, I found the line to the
heater core was almost completely clogged with all sorts of crap.

Try to narrow the source down. Causes of overheating are from either
inadequate air flow or inadequate water/antifreeze flow.

Does the car's radiator have a fan shroud? 

How about the radiator? Did you check it for clogs and flow?

Thanks,
