Hi  all,

Thanks for all the info on the 500F Heads. 
First we checked  everything again; timing, carbs and so on. Then We took 
the
car for a  drive, heated the heads up to nearly 500F and rechecked the heads
at  different points with a laser beam thermometer and all is fine.  
Readings
were between 300 and 400 degrees. 400 was on the sender.
I took  the car for a two hour drive and it ran great! Oil is steady on 
200F,
heads  were steady on 490F, so in real life that's somewhere around 390F.
Weather  is hot for the Netherlands, about 90F.
Thanks for so much knowledge and  experience! Most of you were right from 
the
start...

I'm just glad you found out what was happening and that there was nothing  
potentially damaging to the engine.
