I'm looking for some information regarding the operating temperature of a 1954 Ford Popular Side valve Engine. As most of you may appreciate this engine didn't have a water pump or temperature gauge and I am trying to ascertain what the operating temperature is or should be. I have just purchased a gauge and sender unit and having installed them last night. Sender has been installed into the top or return pipe to the radiator via an adapter I have installed after cutting the pipe in half. During idle after around 10 minutes the temperature gauge was reading approx. 100C. I wasn't able to do a road test to see what the temperature was during normal driving but don't reckon it would be that much lower.
