ok so my 89 camaro is overheating ive had this problem for a while and i just got done with doing a engine swap and it has a new radiator, all new hoses, new thermostatic (170), the fan dose kick on and tem, the only thing i can think of that making it overheat is the trans b/c i can have it in park and rev it up and i cools dose but when i start to drive it. it start overheating. along with i changed everything on it but that.

and on the last motor had the samething going on but it wont let me go past 55ish

Do you have an air dam?

90% sure its the air dam, my 91 z28 was overheating last month and wouldnt let me past 55 or it would shake, the problem was i had all new brakes except the front drivers side (only needed impact driver to get off, some people) and these brakes where like 100k miles old the rotor was paper thin and had a big chip in it the pads where metal brackets the rubber brake line was clogged and the piston in the caliper was out like all the way. this is what would happen id start the car, press the brake to go in reverse, and the brake would be stuck until i turned the car off and cool down it wasnt to bad at first but got continuously worse and overheated. me and my dad thought it was transmission shows how smart we are.

I'm going to have to look at that b/c in the short time I've owned the car I've never really looked at that front brakes
