Just installed a large Champion Aluminum Radiator. I modified a Large OEM 70's cutlass or impala? Fan Shroud. Installed a plastic 6 blade OEM FAN with clutch. seems to pull a god amount of air.
Running a 700R4 (with chevorlet OEM trans cooler) with 350 motor. 160 degree thermostat with 50/50 antifreeze. Cant seem to come down below 200 degrees.. 190 on the HWY. I also have new AC with condenser in front of the radiator. I thought about installing a pusher electric fan on front but room is tight.

Anyone else running this High? I know this is not an extreme temp but I would like to see it come down.
