Has anybody bored a 413 to .060 and had
problems with overheating.. Im starting the think that since Ive checked out
90% of the ideas people have emailed me that maybe .060 is too far making it
too thin and thus cause overheating..Im almost at wits end trying to figure it out…
I, not aware of any head gaskets out there on the market that left out a cooling
hole since the heads are all the same as holes in them.. anyway, that’s what I think..
since the block has been boiled out, it ran cool be for the rebuilding and the only
change I really made is the bore of .060 and changing to 440 heads, is really should
cool… like I said, maybe too thin??

overheating problems. help;;;
I had a similar problem with a 1975 440 engine. I pulled the
heads off for valve work. After I reinstalled the heads, the engine
always ran hot.
The conclusion that I came to is that the head gasket did not have
holes in the proper position to provide antifreeze into the heads, or I
installed the gaskets backwards to achieve the same effect. But I
traded the car off before I had the time to tear it back apart.
