I dont think anyone knows this answer... I have a 69 with a 383 all done up, 6 pack as well. I know what you are going through cuz it happens to me all the time. A new rad or even a proper rad flush might solve your problem though! Cheers.

The original radiators were to small. But if you had air conditioning or the police package it had a larger radiator. The radiator was a couple inches wider and the core was thicker. The wide one was a bolt in. I don't remember if the shroud was the same. They will over heat if the fan shroud is missing. Also check that the fan is working correctly. I have owned 4 Roadrunners. All standard 4 speed only one 440.

Loved that car. Hi, Know what you mean however there is a way to stop that. Most came with a 2 core radiator but if you put a 3 core radiator in it end of problem. I had the 2 core and now a 3 core no more overheating.
