I found a 'universal' unit @ Advance last night that I was going to try and rig up under the battery tray so it's fairly unobtrusive, but would probably prefer a 'factory' unit. Any suggestions of a car to pull one from that fits well and looks pretty decent? My only other experience is with 73+ Darts.

I don't know about the rest of your questions, but on the overflow yes, that's normal. Go ahead and wrig up an overflow system on it (snatch it off a car in the wrecking yard best thing to do) it will allow you to keep more coolant in the system anyway. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill<mailto:Y1TopBanana73@xxxxxxxxx> To: 62-65 Mopar List<mailto:1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, April 20, 2007 6:25 PM Subject: Mild Overheating After doing the heater bypass thing so I could take the Coronet out tomorrow, I noticed that it has running a little hot on the way up to get gas tonight, which is odd 'cause I nearly froze my a$$ off w/ the top down. I ran a loop from the water pump directly to the intake port. But the more I think about it, I'm bypassing the thermostat right? I'm thinking that's why it's running hot. Should I pull the loop hose and install bypass caps on the intake and water pump nipples? Also, my car has a 13 LB cap on it (no AC). My service manual says 14 for non-AC, and 16 for AC. Is there any reason that I can't put a 16 LB cap on a non-AC car? Third-I noticed that the rad was a little low. I filled it up and now it's pissing out the overflow like a racehorse. It has calmed down after running it a little but is still pretty constant...Is this normal? Is this thing like my Model T where you don't fill it up all the way to keep it from peeing? I'm thinking about rigging up an overflow bottle too. Any suggestions?
