Reply to "Cannot get my Pantera to cool"

When the head gasket is installed backwards the engine makes an interesting gurgle & surge sound as its running.

The other possibility is you have a Weiand or Milodon water pump in which the recirc passage has not been drilled out. That usually results in a pulsating temp gage as the engine warms up. The gage swings quickly from cold to hot, and then back to cold again. Over & over several times until the engine reaches operating temp.
