UPDATE.

My two 12" puller fans were pulling air thru radiator, but hardly any air flow thru AC Condenser. Added a 10" pusher fan to the front of the condenser. Not mounted all that well, just zip tied to grille. Got out into stop and go traffic (110 degrees today) and engine temp hovered around 220. would climb to 235 when stuck at traffic lights, but would come back down to 220. The biggest difference is the AC never complained -- ice cold the whole time. Will mount pusher fan direct to condenser in the near future. Probably need to upgrade puller fans as well.
