out of options, car refuses to run below 200-210.

Installed the Griffin radiator and a different 180 stat.

I guess that's it, can't think of anything else to do... sad part is when it runs that hot, i get lifter noise, time to try an oil cooler??

I also saw on another thread, to run .60 over bore head gaskets on a .060 overbored engine.. I did'nt even think of that when i installed my heads, checked Summit, they don't list such a part..

I am confused?
