Agee with everything here. It’s never an issue when you are moving....idling and or driving slow is what drives up engine temp. My FE has just one SPAL fan that I turn on when I start the car and leave on all the time. Temps in the summer are generally 190-195 which the engine likes. At 210 I make sure I am moving. Have not seen it get hotter than that.

Generally I overheat before the engine.

Mike.
