Re: C30 7.4 454 running hot
This might sound silly but did you replace the radiator cap? Those do go bad, even if they look perfect. They are cheap enough that you should have a new one on there regardless.
If that's not the problem, sometimes ignition timing can cause an engine to run warmer than necessary. If the timing is too far advanced, heat can build up in the heads and cause things to warm up.
