Re: Cars Overheating
I'll be the first to ask the ever famous LT1 overheating question... Did you bleed the air out of the system? I just replaced one of my heater hoses and had to bleed/add coolant/bleed a few times before the temp stabilized.

Re: Cars Overheating
fill teh rad, open BOTH bleeder screws untill fluid comes out. close bleeder screws and start car. Allow thermo to open and top off rad. Replace rad cap and drive happy.
BTW, the answer is as close as your owners manual.
