I am driving a 1980 westy, engine 4000 since a complete overhaul. all the cooling tin is on and sealed, fuel injected, timing correct, hi-test gas. the running temp on the head at 60MPH is around 425-450, if I pull a light hill the temp will go to 500-550 and higher if I pushed it instead of backing off, if this temp was correct I should have dropped a valve by now, what could be wrong with the system to cause such temps. Phil
