Before I was running a 4 row radiator. Nothing was wrong with it and I had it boil out. Around town it was running at 175-180. On the freeway it was running hot 210-220. 4 row radiaotor just wasn't getting enough air through it at high speed.
I installed a summit universal 2 row radiator and aux trans cooler rated at 17000 GVW. With no other changes now it runs at 165 and 175 on the freeway. Fans only come on when idling for 15 min or more and temperature comes right down to 160. So far I am happy with it.
