I questioned Robert Pond about his plugging the bypass on my engine ( Ponds 482 ) that he built for me . He said no problem and prefers it that way . Yesterday it was low 90`s here and at idle in the garage and only the car fan, 180 to 185 degrees max . It goes up smoothly with no surges or overshoot on the gauge . Are you sure you have all the air out the cooling system as it can a real bear to do ?? Stupid question ... are the holes on your thermostat on the top at 12:00 o`clock ?
