I am having the same problem, the classics take 7.5 ltr so im told.
Intermitant overheating and both bottom and top hose feel pressurized, sometimes its hot on lower hose sometimes its not?

well mine has turn out to be the thermostat but if your hose are pressurized and its over heating it might be the dreaded head gaskets get a liquid block test done, my was not over heating or any thing like that but you could try cheap things first like new rad thermostat bleed the system
