[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 284628, member: 3278"] Remember - Just run it with nothing there but a large hole on either side that water can run out of. The thermostat assemblies should be completely removed as well as leaving the covers off the cylinder heads for the "test" Run it long enough to determine if both sides are flowing about equal. Test done! By the way....I have no clue what a previous poster was attempting to tell you when he mentioned different temperature thermostats ...... there is only one for that engine, period. Also no "tubes" going to each side and the only gaskets on that engine are for the regulator rectifier up on top (which cannot block flow) and the cylinder heads. Your test will determine flow through the cylinder heads. No exhaust gaskets or intake by-pass cover gaskets. Also disregard looking at the exhaust. The exhaust port up on the mid-section runs dry.
