Re: Vintage Air install running hot now
Are you running electric fans are the motor driven fan? Do you have a fan shroud installed?
If your running electrics are you sure they are working?

Good deal man. Glad you got it figured out. You say air in the system, the water cooling system are the AC system? Just wondering?

Re: Vintage Air install running hot now
Cooling system bro you see I did a 68 front clip swap on my 69 C10 along with the AC install so I drained the coolant to remove my radiator.
Had to go from a 69 radiator core support to a 68 the only thing on the front clip that will work with one another are the fenders & some small parts like the headlight buckets & hood hinges & so on. |
