I have looked at almost every thread here regarding overheating sbc's. i feel like i've tried most everything. the 305 will run 205 210 while driving, which isn't too bad, but when idling or sitting in traffic will get up to 230 235 and start puking. it originally had a 195 thermostat in it and i thought it was bad. Sbc 350 overheats. i've been battling an overheating issue for quite some time. now i do understand it is 100 degrees out right now, but i'd like to believe the engine should still be able to cool itself off. i've got a big three core aluminum radiator, with dual electric puller fans, and smaller electric pusher fan.
