520SC-Here is the question What does it do with Ram Air? If you run at the correct temp while cruising then your radiator is sufficient. At Ram Air you are moving large SFM of air and pushing more water, If you are at say 190 at ram air then you should be 10-15 degrees higher in traffic if you have the right plumbing and fans. Puller fans are WAY more efficient than pushers and dual 12" are way better than a single 16". You can offset them and cover a high percentage of the core and pull large amounts of air at idle and low speeds.
Good Shrouds
Efficient air flow
Good Water flow
Proper Plumbing to allow for proper expansion and return and to release trapped air.
Those are the keys,
My bet is your Griffin is way more efficient than my crappy rad and I drive in 105 ambient and heavy traffic and 212 is the highest I have seen and that was lugging up a steep grade behind an idiot on a 100 degree day.
