I fought heating problems all last year and never really got a handle on it completely until this year.

The 460 doesn't normally run hot as the FE series does so your problem may not be the same as mine. Here is what was suggested to me and each one helped or narrowed the problems down to something else.

Is your radiator sized correctly?

First Check your thermostat in hot water to see if it is opening correctly.

Are you loosing water or is your water staying contained in your system and your gauge is just reading hot? If so check your gauge.

What is the pressure rating of your radiator cap? 18-20#

Is your fan set up as a puller fan and is it operational?

Are you sure you have all the air out of your system? To check this; as you are filling your radiator leave your water temp gauge probe loose and fill your reservior until water (anti-freeze) starts coming out your fitting on the top of your manifold. If your manifold is higher than your radiator fill the area between the highest point on your manifold runners and your radiator fill will trap air.

Add a pint of Water Weter ($8.00) to your coolant.

Is your water pump functioning properly (rotation direction).

I hope some of these suggestions help.
