Correct it circles to quickly iv worked in 2 radiator shops good thinking . 👍🏻

[@unclebrentsshed4253]

The thermostat definitely helped , I ended up flushing the radiator as well

After a fresh rebuild its common for rust scale to work itself loose after machining and hot tanking. Always run a inline filter. Did u fix the heating issue?

[@antonyfrost2541]

[@brianandglendaharkin9457]

That model always looks good in white. Unusual engine colour 🤔. Owned a blue CM sedan in the early 90swith blue trim even had at the time a new NOS grill . Nice work . 👍🏻

[@unclebrentsshed4253]

Engine colour was chosen by the owner , cheers man 👌🏽

[@unclebrentsshed4253]

No housings. Eltrontic fans are not the best. Just use the old system with shroul or housing. Keep it cool. ❤

[@unclebrentsshed4253]

Definitely would have if it was my car 👌🏽

[@davidhayter8516]

These things will cruise at 140kays all day…as long as you keep the juice coming…and that was their Achilles heel. The ELB gadget was pretty much a lark. When the CMs came out in about ‘82 they had to shrug the petrol guzzler image, but it was too late. The Commodore had seduced everybody and Ford’s had the ugly but potent XD which was the go-between because the Commodore was small and the Vals too big and thirsty, plus the alloy head XE was on the horizon. Chrysler had their fans but not enough to keep the flag flying at Tonsley.

[@unclebrentsshed4253]

This comment is spot on, well spoken . I love my old cars but newer cars are so convenient ☺️
