Well, I just got home, and looked at my thermostats, and they are 180, and not 195. As for the timing chain, I have replaced it four times in the last 6 years. I had many problems with the tensioners, but now I have a new chain, guides, tensioner, oil pump, and so on. I do have a chiltons and a haynes manual, and they are pretty vauge on many things, but they do work. I will check the vacuume line that connects to the Intake, as well as the others. The only thing I have not done on your list was to Install the thermostat with the bleeder hole at the top. I did not know that it mattered which way was up on the thermostat. As for bleeding the system, I have allwayse poured coolant in untill it was full, then unscrewed the bleeder screw, and waited till coolant pours out. When there is no bubbles, just coolant, I put the plug back in, before the level gets too low, then top it off again. I did replace the cluster voltage regulator, but I still have a doubt. I also will take a autometer temp gauge, that I bought for my Small block chevy, and see if my gauge is really acurate. I'm Hoping that I am not trying to fix a fantom. If this don't fix my problems, I will try another Intake manifold, from the bone yard. Bob
