How big or bad is Monteagle pass? Can not be too much worst than some here in the NW I have done. ie 5-8% for 5-10 miles or so! Just shift down to a gear the motor does not get thrashed and pushed with the throttle at about 3/4, away you go at whatever speed that is.
ANyway, from some bad experience after one rebuild. I have found it best to flush or replace the rad and any external coolers during some rebuilds depending upon the what or why. Otherwise, the contaminants in the engine are more than likely in the rad/oil cooler lines and cause issues with a new motor at 2-3000 miles......not fun!
