See that's what I thought about doing. Leaving the 2 row al and going back to the factory clutch fan/ electric fan combo

So you ditched that set up at continued to run stock? Or your running this now with only 5 degree difference?

On another forum everyone is telling me that I should go back to the original clutch fan with electric fan set up. Is anyone running the electric fan set up that's not having issues?

Pressure tested coolant system- good Head gasket tested with dye tester- good. Stayed blue Removed t stat, re tested head gasket- good Still spikes

Doesn't the heater core outlet hose come after the t stat on the t stat housing?

I was just going over that with a buddy. I've drop two new thermostats in it already. I'm going to pull thermostat and see what happens. Thoughts?

It was over flowing and I kept a hose on it. So fill the bottle and radiator and work the air out? Will a closed system work itself out as far as the air is concerned? The burping videos I watched showed with cap off

For the air- I'm not familiar with the characteristics of air in the cooling system. Never had that issue before. When I drained the system I did notice there was no water in the res bottle. But still I burped it but it does not seem to happen when I have the cap off. Haven't verified for sure...

If there's a cracked head wouldn't there be other signs to look for? Old man- I ruled out one and two. For number four- wouldn't I experience performance issues if the cat was plugged? For number three-if it was running lean or etc wouldn't there be more performance issues? And cracked head or...

Two fans are on a switch which I leave on. Third operates just like stock fan, when ac is on or reaches 217. But I know all those are working. This issues wants me to believe it's a head issue but oil looks like I just put it in and the water I drains from radiator is good. I don't know much...

Champion radiator. Not sure what fans they supply but all verified they are working properly
