Re: Cooling problem

Yea, my thoughts exactly. Has a shroud and new hoses. Was just out messing with it and noticed that when I run it with the cap off, can't seem to get all the air out or something. It burps out coolant, I refill it and it does it again endlessly. I just replaced the heads. I had a problem awhile back where a saddle tank cap didn't vent and filled the motor with fuel. When I tried to start it, it hydrolocked and bent a valve on number 8 cyl. So picked up a pair of rebuilt corvette heads on put them on. Maybe buggered a head gasket during re-assembly and now getting compression bleed into the cooling system? Maybe damaged the block somehow when it hydrolocked?
