It will be a worthwhile investment.

Thanks for all the input. Truly appreciated. I never even thought about looking at an aftermarket option, or thinking of looking on Amazon (brain fart on my part). With my engine being modified a bit, and by no means original, there are plenty of option now that I know what to look for. The one...

Thanks for sharing. This is helpful. Do these pull the coolant back into the system once it cools, or do they just collect the overflow from hitting the ground?

Yes…. This I understand. But I don’t want the coolant overflow to spill onto the ground anymore (just feels like the right thing to do). I am looking to see what other folks might have done to modify their system for some inspiration

I am in the process of replacing my radiator which I think is going to cure a lot of my heat issues. During this process, I want to add a coolant overflow bottle. I have a 1968 300 with a 440 engine. From what I can tell, back in those days the overflow just spilled to the ground (the tube in...

Out with the old…. In with the new! I am surprised at how easy of a project this has been so far. Since it is all apart, I figured I’d install new hoses too. They will be here tomorrow. The old: And the new:

My spare radiator checked out well. Picking it up today and probably have it in by this weekend for some cars n coffees. Probably gonna get the old one reconditioned as well. Clearly having a spare in the attic worked out well for me. :-D

Thanks for that advice. I did some research at myMopar.com in the parts books. It appears the 2785-942 is a 1967 rad for a 383. The 440 in ‘67 has a different part number. By 1968 it appears the radiator for the 383 and 440 are the same part number. The measurements do match up and I deleted...

Is a radiator labeled 2785-942 (my spare) interchange with a 289(?)8-072 (the one installed)? Spare: Installed:

Thank goodness for a big attic! The inside looks much better on that one: I’ll have this one pressure tested tomorrow.

What a waste of time (and money). Before: After:

Here we go! Before: After coming in a bit.

This thread has got me thinking a lot about my temp issues on my ‘68 300 (440 engine). I will likely do a flush because the coolant has been in their a while. Question about getting the radiator re-cored too. There is a local shop that does this. Anything specific I should do/ask to improve...

I finally got a call back from my mechanic today and they are indicating my coolant blow out is because of a bad heater control valve. Still no pic forwarded to me so I am dubious, but following along for the time being... They say that are having a hard time finding a replacement part, so I...
