i met a bloke who had a 74 mgbgt i think, and had done all of this, without once checking if the water pump was working.

haha. no, I checked that.
It was the temperature that confused me. 20 degrees, it would be fine stuck stationary in a traffic jam for hours. 30 degrees, it would overheat at 70 on the motorway.

BL witchcraft, I'm telling you.

i'd have said oil pressure,
but if you said you put an oil cooler in, then it is probably a valve somewhere. hmmmm, was it just cutting out, or properly steam out of the radiator over-heating?

properly steam out of the radiator. Well, I learned at what point on the temp gauge
I needed to stop and let the engine cool to just prevent coolant boiling, to be fair.

and pretty much the only valve in a spit engine in the thermostat. And I took that out too.
So the coolant was on full whack constantly.
