Make sure it's tuned properly, the engine compartment is properly sealed, and the fan belt is adjusted. Three things that cause these cars to overheat are (1) timing retarded, (2) the gasket between the engine tin and the body is rotted out, and (3) the fan belt's too loose. Also the engine speed relates to cooling and the ACVW must not be driven like a modern car cruising at 2K RPM. Generally speaking 1st to 20, 2nd to 40, 3rd to 60. Adjust accordingly, but you do not want to lug the engine or spin less than 2500 rpm for extended periods of time. You can also get oil temp or head temp gauges to help monitor the engine temps.
