Beagles68 30 over is a safe overbore. Find a good machinist and have the block slevied. If done right you will have a new motor inside with a seasoned block on the outside. best way to go. 60 over is partially why you are running hot. what thermostat is in the motor? What radiator do you have? Does the waterpump have a plate on the impellior to help flow? Check out this first. Get or borrow a infared temp checking gun and make sure the radiator is not partially clogged and you have full flow. I would replace the thermostat anyway just because. Do the basics first, this will save time and money down the road. Rick Lake
