The crack should have nothing to do with overheating as long as you have sufficient water level in the cooling system. The way you describe the water temp with warm, not overly hot water at the top of the radiator sounds pretty normal. Maybe the engine dies because of the coil or some other problem. When you flushed it out, you should take off the radiator and the two necks bolted to the head and block. Then use a tube to reach back in as far as you can to flush it out. A pressure washer would be good. I would recommend having the crack in the block welded. This is a common problem and probably happened because someone let if freeze. I agree with Michael that incorrect timing might be causing the overheating. A friend had a Super C that was overheating like that, and I found the timing to be way off. So far off that I had a hard time finding the TDC mark on the flywheel. The tractor ran surprizingly good for as far off as the timing was. The symptoms were overheating and rapid fouling of the plugs.
