Alright now I'm stumped. I have a 460 with a Griffen rad, cool flex lines, an expansion tank, an Edelbrock high flow water pump, a matched 180deg. thermostat, a 16" puller fan AND twin pushers from Finish line. I'm using 20% water and two bottles of watter wetter. I'm running about 205 normal and up to 220 on the highway on a hot day. Traffic is an impossibility unless it's snowing out. Before you say pushers and pullers don't work together, I tried turning off the pullers as DV suggested, but that was worse. My mechanical water temp guage is located in the heater outlet, just below the thermostat. (There is no heater in the car.) I also have an electric sensor on the water pump which would turn on a light at 210 degrees. That light has not gone off yet, so the radiator is working somewhat.

How hot is too hot?

What else can I try?

HELP!
