Just seen your post about the 454 that is still overheating, Something to try, Drill a 1/4" hole in the base plat of the thermostat. That Will leave a place for air to get by when the thermostat is closed.

Thanks rusted, been trying both stock and modified t-stats, same result.

Unforigving,

Forgot to say this earlier, but what if the timingis too far off, will cause odd overheat issues, especially if the advance mechanism is sticky or failing.

I wish. Went through the distributor already, just a couple weeks ago. Yes, timed wrong will make it run hot, but it will run cold for quite a while sometimes, then go from 170 to 220+ in less than two seconds?

Absolutely not.

Bad timing slowly builds heat. Not spikes.
