Edelbrock alum heads w/ Edel RPM alum intake. I think the gaskets are fine but we can check the plugs for coolent.

Patrick- I do have a digital cam but you probably don't have the same overflow tank on your ERA as I have on my SPF. The hole on the overflow tank is very small and was built into the tank (hole didn't just happen today).

Meat- You may be onto something here. I topped off the tank yesterday prior to taking it out (although I didn'y fill it completely, I filled it more than halfway). However, the car ran fine when I drove it afterwards. The problem just started today after firring it up and running about 10 minutes. Temps got hot much quicker than normal though (100-110)

Is it possible that a therm would work with the lighter flame but not work when in the engine? The flame is much hotter..........just guessing here at this point.
