On my 72, I had the original 3 row core replaced with a 4 row. The fan clutch works properly. I have a 180 thermostat. I'm in Southern California and it gets blazing hot here in the summer . My temp gauge barely gets to the first mark. Thing runs stone cold.. And I did this back in 2002... Make sure you have the hood seals and the shroud. The shroud in itself makes a huge difference... Ask me how I know... LOL

If your engine is not heating up properly then your thermostat is not working. It can just be stuck open a little bit and the engine will not heat up properly.
