Timing has been checked

belt is fine, radiator hose is good and the thermostat is a 71 degree

might be better with one big fan than 2x  8"..  

Thats my next thing to try

Looking for a bit of advise. I have a 302 Windsor in a Cortina. I bought it as is, looked to be rebuilt recently. I have replaced the water pump, thermostat and housing, running a 3 core radiator and the thing runs at about 200F. The radiator is brand new and not blocked, there are 2 x 8 inch fans pushing air from in front of the rad. Any ideas why it's running so hot? I would have thought something like this would run around 180?

Hi Ando, I have a very good brake master cylinder out of a TE. If you want some pictures pm me your email address and I will send you some.

where are you located?

Not sure about the rest of it but the oil pressure gauge uses a different sender than the light. one of the boys with a TD has been looking for this for a while now. not sure if he's found any.

I have a TD cluster with tacho here in Sydney, I can post to you if you are interested. Pete

Step 11, best to use some rubber grommet in the hole the speaker wires go through. The constant opening and closing of the doors will quickly wear through the cables insulation.
