Jerry,
Why do you feel that the car is overheating?If the temp gauge
stays at 1/2 and the car doesn't overheat/ boil over while running. The
boil over could just be that you are filling the radiator to full or the new cap
is the wrong pressure cap for your car. The amount of heat generated by
your Imperial would be sufficient to heat a 3 bedroom house in Montana.
Most of the heat generated is being pulled off the radiator and thus under the
hood. A good test would be to use a deep fry thermometer to see what the actual
temperature of the coolant is.
