Also, the '36 LB run such low oil pressure...I wonder if I'm better off with the 140 degree thermostat or the 160 degree. Any opinions?
And, fellas, again, many, many thanks. Yesterday my buddy Warren and I were wondering where to go to get guidance on this sort of motor problem. Hands down, Fordbarn has come to the recue.
