Have you tried flushing out the cooling system with your garden hose?
If there's a blockage, that might clear it out for you.

Don't assume that because you have found one problem, you have found the
ONLY problem.

Hello to all,
The problem with my Weber carb wasn't what i had made it out to be.  After I
removed the pollution controls, I advanced the timing just a little bit.  I
fired the car up, and the stutter and backfire was all but gone.  A little
more advance, and it was gone!  I replaced my old thermostat cover with one
of those neat aluminum ones, and discovered that my thermostat was not stuck.
 However, my car still drastically overheats.  I plan on pulling the water
pump, but barring any serious difficulties, I don't know why the car
continues to overheat.  What should be my next course of action?  I fear that
there might be a blocked water passage.  What can i do to relieve this
situation, barring pulling the engine and having the block cleaned?

P.S. ~ Thanks to everbody who gave me help with the Union Jack on the boot
lid!   I just finished mine, and it looks great!  Y'all deserve a cyber-pat
on the back!
