Also a note on thermostats, I use Milodon's

It looks just like the one George shows,

Milidon site only shows the top of the thermostat. And yes, it does match the Robertshaw high flow George picture shows.

BUT, Milidon has only one part number for ALL ford/chevy engines. THUS, they are not selling a Cleveland specific high flow thermostat, but a regular - Windsor - thermostat.

It is therefore NOT closing off the recirculation passage in the block, and will not send all water pump flow to the radiator, but will always be sending some to the block because when it opens it will not close off the recirc passage.

In fact, Summit Racing - unlike JEGS - makes note of this fact in their catalog...
