Coolant capasity fo 67 Campers Special?

Post by 67 Camper Special »

What is the approx coolant capacity of a 67 Campers special? Mine now has a 460 but a general idea would be appreciated.

Thanks

I blew a heater hose last week and it got a bit hot before I noticed. I was up way past my bedtime and not too sharp.

anyway...... it was taking water, no signs at the exhaust, but still, it was losing it somewhere and not leaking in the driveway. Oil is clean. I could smell it when my foot was in it, but never a drip when I stopped.

So.......... I took it out and let her rip to see what gives. At about 110mph she blew a rubber soft plug out that was hidden under the motor mount. Big white cloud! Problem found. But now I have to pull the motor or put in another rubber plug for the time being. I really need to quit putting money into this 460, but it runs so good its hard to get motivation to do a diesel conversion.
