Heater Help

Alright I'll try to explain this to the best of my ability... When reassembling my car one of two radiators was put in.. This one was the one we didn't want to put in b/c it was clogged full of crap. All this crap got through and the car overheated and blah blah blah. Anyways.. so we flushed it, back flushed the heatercore and so on. I think something is wrong w/my fan that blows the heat b/c on its highest setting you cant even feel the air hit you in the seat, you have to hold your hand up to it.. Also the heat isn't super hot.. its hot but not like burn you hot. It also won't get hot until around 210 degrees which this is the thermostat that the car has in it... Any suggestions for the slow air flow???? Fan, switch???? And if I put in a 180* thermostat will the heat be hot at 180????? This is a really annoying problem.

Thanks

Nelson

I bought a camaro someone had poured like 5 bottles of bar's leaks into trying fix a cracked head. After I fixed it I had a no heat situation, even after flushing the heater core like 5 times. I ended up putting a new core in and it works awesome. There is another problem these cars have with airflow from the dash being a problem. You can search out how to fix it on shoebox's website.
