Again, some random replies/thoughts:

Fascinated by all the slightly different posts. Seems like everyone has a little bit different focus on this.

Yes the radiator cap (newish, came with the car four years ago...) is for 3 pounds. Didn't give it much thought since it seemed to work, however a close local friend with a 56 made the change and that solved his heating issue. For ten bucks, it's worth a try.

Duane has been delayed, but will retime today or tomorrow. Might help a bit.

As to the guage being garbage I'm not expecting lab calibration. It seems to be consistent and useably accurate, which is pretty much all it was supposed to do.....

I got a new windshield last year which is tinted. After that experience, I'm not touching the glass. The comment was intended as an observation, not to be seen as an issue here. Just a difference between then and now.

I'll check back when the noted changes have been done to report; meantime, thank you all for the serious attention you have given this problem.
