Quoting Removed, click Modern View to seeI had an early fifty's international truck with a mounted corn sheller. Big sleeveless six, 304-308 in line I really do not remember the actual size. I had it bored 60 over to clean up the bore from being rust stuck. I thought that had something to do with the fact that it always ran on the warm side load or no load. Had to be real carful when working it. Had the radiator redone, no help, modified and mounted the blades from a gm clutch fan without the clutch. Sounded like a jet engine at operating RPM's. Still ran warm to hot. Was talking about it with the guy I bought it from one day and he asked if I had a thermostat in it and I said no. He said that engine would always run hot without a thermostat as the water didn't stay in the radiator long enough to transfer the heat. Put one in it and ended the problem. I could work it as hard as I wanted on a 100 degree day and it cooled just fine. I really didn't think it would work but had tried everything else so thought why not. Put a thermostat in it and try it, your not out much and it needs one anyway.
