Tim,
I am right where you are right now. Since my new KC motor I also noticed higher temps. Last summer with my tame 428 I would have 190-200 all the time. I am running 190 thermostat, Griffin 22 x 19 (part # 1-55182-X) 2 row 3 inch radiator, Spal 2350 CFM fan with 190 switch. Now with the new 580 hp motor I am seeing 210 or so and that was a week ago when we were in the mid 80's. I am sure today would have been scorcher!
I have a call into Griffin. I know that I can buy a shroud that will help, but I have also seen some spal fans in the 3000 cfm range. I also want to find out what HP my radiator is rated for. I was going to pull the stat and try, but I want to see if I am going to end up doing more of everything anyway.
I gotta run out of town for a few days but if I get ahold of Griffin tomorrow I will try and post before I leave.
