Default Overflow and Steam Vent Locations

Hello all,

In the radiator below, would the steam vent be the port on the bottom (under the top hose inlet) and the overflow port be the port on the top (directly under the cap)

You are correct. Overflow always under the pressure cap.

Thanks! By the way, I dig the Olds thread. I don't comment much because I don't have a lot of knowledge about these things, but I like checking out peoples' rides, especially the antiques.

Thanks, I looked at your build, looking good. I always have liked those aero coupes. My car is an antique? I guess it is at only 53. I guess that means that I am also an antique at 71. Such is life. Sure beats the alternative.
