[T3] type 4 2000cc oil pressure and overheating problem

[Dave Hall]

That's surprising, as I would have thought it is far more restrictive on a
Notch.

We've often mentioned the clear rear screen in almost all road conditions on
a Squareback, (and less surpisingly the Fastback) unlike almost all other
cars I've observed with near square backs.  When trailering a small boat
with flat cover, the cover always dished down with the airflow over the
roof.

Yes, there are several successful applications in NOTCHBACKS, but none in
Squares or Fasty's, at least not engines that are run on the highway for any
length of time with a temp gauge on it.

The cooling intake of the Notch is entirely different.

Well, I  havent yet.  I think much of my problem is with the T3  
application,
The lack of forced cooling induction. I pretty much ruled out  everything
else!





Keith, you might want to talk to Nick (Supaninja on the Samba), as he's got 
 a 2.0L t-4 engine in his 65 Notch, and lives in Houston Texas (sure gets 
hot  there). According to him, he's had no cooling issues with his, and also

has good  oil pressure. He built his engine last winter, and tuned it in the

spring. His  big issue has been his trans, along with other PO related 
problems. :O But the  engine has been great. In fact he keeps pushing people
to 
go t-4, since his runs  so good.
