Re: 55 Caribbean Over Heating

I am not sure that is a defective gasket unless the holes are completely missing a passage. I have many of the original and aftermarket single layer steel gaskets and they all have smaller holes over larger water passages. Don't have a a block to check and see if any ports are completely covered.
Just like the thermostat slows flow thru the radiator I imagine there was some metering used in the block and heads to slow the flow down or direct it past areas so the water could have time for better heat transfer.
