thanks

P.S. I am with ya on the whole crawling around at 51 yrs. thing... I am also 51 and I told my wife the other day that this feels different (harder) than it did 8 yrs ago when I built my yellow '72!
We used a Spectra Premium CU730 radiator and the stock 5.3 mechanical fan. We have a tough time getting it to get hot, runs right at 180-190 all the time.
