Someone mentioned pulley sizes. If your moving the water too fast through the radiator it doesnt have a chance to cool down before it goes back into the motor. You said when your just cruising it seems to be fine. If you push it a little harder..(higher rpms) it climbs up. BB fords are notorious for running a little hot anyway...then you throw a high volume water pump on it from an engine builder looking to sell parts and you have enhanced the problem...slow the water flow down.


Just my thoughts
