as long as the water pump is working and the thermostat is opening, the electric fan should be pulling enough air thru the core to keep it from overheating... I'd be curious about the fan's cfm rating... you want a fan that can at least pull 2200 cfm for a V8 with a 4 row core, preferably 2800 cfm...
Are you sure your temp gauge is not giving you a false reading..??? I had a stock temp gauge that started reading in the hot range and by process of elimination it turned out to be a faulty gauge.
