'34 Ford Non-pressure Radiator Question
I have a '34 P/U with a strong 350. The radiator cools it well, but it is not pressurized. I have run the thing uphill in 100+ degree heat near sea level and it holds temperature with the electric fan.
I am going to take the thing up into the Sierra this summer, to something like 8,000 feet and am worrying about boilovers. If I run a 50/50 mix of water/antifreeze, will I have any problems? Guys around Denver must live with proplems like this.
Any advice is appreciated.
