URGENT: Over-heating probs

[Stuey Roberts]

Hey listers....  I finally got the L20 started in my 1600 (yeeeha)  but a 
problem arrose that the motor got very hot very quickly, like within 5 mins 
or so, the extractors were glowing red.  Now, i have twin 40mm delortoes, 
series 2 bluey dizzy, i set the timing on about 8-9deg. i have the standard 
radiator running single 10" thermo, no fan on front of motor,pretty new 
thermostat,  There was a lot of fumes in the garage.  Am i right to think 
that the carbies are WAY out of tune and its running extremely rich, or is 
it something else, i think we stopped the motor when the guage reached 197 
F.  (autometer water temp guage)
Anyone out there have any ideas, as i need to sort this prob out, cause i 
really dont feel like cooking a brand new motor...  thanks guys..  :)
