I've got a few words on that

EFFICIENCY. I tweaked mine
from about .250" down to
about .100" and it made a
drastic change in my engine temps with no other
changes.
That's why minimizing this leakage path improves
flow thru the engine and thru the radiator (when the
thermostat is open).

You can spend money on big radiators, electric fans,
magic cooling fluid, yadda,yadda, but if you are
running a large clearance all the other stuff is a band
aid. Do the clearnace thing first, then go from there.
Cost is a few bucks for a gasket. Not only that, hot

2014 Carmel, IN ARTMOBILIA—Saturday, August 23rd
SEGTOA has been invited to the 8th Annual Carmel Automobilia where the 50th Anniversary of the
GTO will be celebrated with a special class for all GTOs. For those looking for an end of summer
road trip see the information below.
The 8th annual 2014 Carmel Artomobilia is scheduled on Saturday, August 23rd from 11:00 AM to
5:00 PM. The show will once again be held in the historic Arts and Design District in Carmel
(Indianapolis), Indiana, which provides a great venue to host the event. The goal of Artomobilia is
to showcase classic and performance cars, attract local and regional automotive-related businesses
and artists, and to provide a fun day for the car show participants, event volunteers, and
families. The cars that participate in the Carmel Artomobilia range from Ford Model A’s to Ferraris,
American and European classic and sports cars (1925 to current), Indiana Built Classics (1925 –
1948), super cars, race cars, and muscle cars. Each year’s event attracts different, unique, and
historically significant automobiles to help make Artomobilia one of Indiana’s premier car
shows!
The Pontiac GTO will be featured in a special class this year to celebrate GTO’s 50th
anniversary. Our goal for this class is to have cars representing all generations of the GTO from
1964 – 1974, and 2004 - 2006. We could use your club’s help to find GTOs from this period
(restored or in well-maintained original condition).
You can visit the website links below for further details and information. Please email me back or
call me on my cell phone if you have any questions.
I hope to see the Southeastern GTO Association at the 2014 Carmel Artomobilia!
