I finally got the rebuilt water pump and water jacket installed. I like the gasket sold by Olsen Gaskets better then the thin paper one sold by Max Merritt. I ran the car for 1/2 hour in the garage and never got above three quarter on the temp gauge. I took the car for a quick spin yesterday and never got above 1/2 gauge even on the steep 700' climb to my house.

However the weather is cool in Oregon, so I'll have to wait until the warmer weather arrives to see if the problem has been solved.

BTW, I still can't see coolant flowing in the radiator opening.
