What temp rating is the thermostat? Sometimes the radiator actually can provide more cooling capacity than necessary for a 302 unless it is being RPM constantly on a track or "Worked" such as climbing in the mountains. In your case I would suggest installing a thermostatically controlled fan switch. It should not, nor is it necessary for it to run constantly.
