Fans coming on? When was the last time your radiator was flushed out? Could be clogged?

radiator can be clogged or water pump issues when my car over heated i changed the radiator and water pump and put the slp manual fan switch

i used to have an LT1 z28 and it overheated all the time. I took it to the shop and he told me it's because the headers were getting really hot, they weren't coated with anything.

If your fans work, I would just buy a new radiator or find someone who can flush it out. I replaced everything in my cooling system to only find out that the mechanic didnt flush out the radiator correctly and i spent a lot of money for nothing. It was apparently stopped up in the middle.

what in the f are you talking about??? headers will not cause your engine to overheat. in fact headers will take more heat/exhaust out of the engine than stock manifolds. thats why you see a hp increase.... more efficient.

does it quickly overheat or does it take a few minutes?

if it quickly overheats your water pump may be out. put a long screw driver to the water pump and put your ear on it to see if you can hear the wp spinning. pop off the rad cap and see if coolant is flowing too.

the heater core may be clogged also. its a common failure on lt1s. pull it and check it out. i found a hand full of sand and goo in mine when mine was overheating.

i might be mis understanding but mine did the same thing when new hypertech thermostat was put in. i had to bleed the air out if the cooling system.
