Compression test results ?:angel:
I just remembered this one.Quote:
Is the 3.5 hard to "burp" out air pockets in the cooling system?
Is this engine an old carby Job?
If it is another cause of overheating is blocking with rust of the little pipe from between the carbys to the radiator which causes an airlock in the manifold.
The fix is to just get a drill and run it through the little pipe until coolant comes out.

Have you actually pulled the radiator out to clean it or done it in the vehicle?
Mine used to get heaps of leaves and stuff between the AC condenser and the radiator blocking air flow.
Is this the car with all the spot lights on the bull bar? Take some of those off and see how you go. Has the viscous coupling on the fan still got drag? The idea is as the rad heats up the fan speed increases and roars more.
If all that is OK I would get the rad rodded as the other guys suggested.
Good luck Paul
