Do you have the aluminum radiator with a single fan and aluminum shroud? I had
the same problem with my West Coast (533 cu.in. BB engine). The fan supplied
was pulling air thru the radiator but the pitch of the blades were turning in the wrong
direction for max air flow. I reversed the wires causing the air to blow thru the
radiator backwards. The air flow in this direction was much greater, however not good
for driving. I removed the shroud & fan & replaced them with two 12 inch fans from
Summet Racing (PN MRG -1986) . After the engine broke in, I have never been over 200
degrees even in stop and go traffic with a 160 degree thermostat. I don't know if this
is your problem, but it cured my overheating problem.
