If your pump is somehow modified and hi flow, get a hi flow 160 thermostat. They resist the high pressure trying to close the stat, had that problem on a pontiac V8, don't know that the coolant flows the same way here.


Also, you could be looking at a fuel/exhaust issue here? Exhaust too small or maybe your cruising circuit ion the carb is too lean? If the idle was adjusted correctly you'd stay cool but once you started driving on the cruising circuit, if it's not jetted properly or you have some sort of vacuum leak, you'd run lean which equals hot in a hurry.
