Have you checked your timing?Mine did the same and my timing was retarded letting the fuel burn out the exhaust header.
Advanced my timing and the exhaust temp and water temp came down to normal!

Curtis I went to 1 race with the wide blocks and put 98 jets and had the same problem, never got to dyno it, both people with the dyno's have a problem with zoomies, will try going up on jets
Glen just read your reply, I have 36 degrees in it next year will try bumping it up to 40 and see if it makes a difference.
Thanks Curtis and Glen will update next year!!

Curtis After placed my order for the BLP broad body parts, I saw that the bolts were not long enough. I contacted the business to inquire regarding why the blocks weren't included, and they verified that they were the supplier. I'm having them shipped in three days, and they should arrive tomorrow. I'll see how they perform because I have a two-day event this weekend. I'm going to start with smaller jets (.112) and work my way up. Doug spelling bee answers
