I just had the engine on my 1960 MGA rebuilt by a reputable British car machine shop. Before the rebuild, it would run 190 degrees to 200 plus on hot days. I figured the rebuild, which included a tho

What temperature thermostat are you using? If it doesn't open until 190 deg I would have thought that this will be normal. Kindest Regards Tom Tom McCay (Director) Classic-Car-World Ltd Tel: 01522 88

Before the rebuild, it would run 190 degrees to 200 plus on hot days. I figured the rebuild, which included a thorough block and head cleaning, would tame these numbers. While breaking in the cam in

1. I'm not sure I'm convinced that 190 to 200 on "hot" days is any kind of a 2. If you are trying to reduce the engine temp at highway speed, you aren't going to address that with a fan. Above 35-40m

190 to 200 doesn't really sound like a problem to me either. The problem with the remote motor would be required maintenance of adjusting the belt. We all know that most Americans can't be bothered d

I suppose that's a point, but the old engine-driven fan already had a fanbelt, so this isn't adding anything. I imagine it would be a relatively low-tension, toothed belt, anyway. -- Max Heim '66 MGB

There is a belt driven electric fan on the market, sorry I did a web search and could not find the brand. A friend of mine has one on his MGB GT V8. It looks like an attic fan and is useful for appli

Hi Bill, list. Every time I've rebuilt an engine (or had it done for me ), it has run hot for the first few hundred miles. I always expected this was because the rings are causing a lot of friction a

There is a model that has the motor off to the side. Someone at the Brit V8 show at Townsend had one on an MGB. Maybe they are not as robust as central on-the-shaft one Regards Barrie Barrie Robinson

Late Audis use them. They have electric water pumps, too. Plastic. Sell like hotcakes, so they must be good ;-) (personally, I would not copy Audi/VW's technology of the past 8 years) Peter C' ______

This is getting a bit away from the subject line, but following the discussion. How hot do you intend to run the cooling system? 50/50 mix of glycol/water boils at 223dF at sea level. Boiling tempera
