Someone in one of the forums mentioned if when driving on the freeway, with the steady stream of air running through your radiator and it runs cool, your running the right size radiator. If as soon as you loose this air it starts heating up, GET A SHROUD with a good fan. Running a fan without the shroud is not giving you 100%. I ordered a shroud/fan setup from Vintage Air ($199) and now I can get stuck in traffic, idle for prolonged times and not worry about the tempt anymore. Running at 190 now. Man, what a difference. Before I was just using a big fan and no shroud and it would normally be in the 200's +.
