In addition to the AFCO Racing aluminum radiator (similar to the GRIFFIN unit) and Don's fan package I installed an EDELBROCK water pump on my 331 stroker (10.1:1 compression). At my first cruse I had to sit idleing in 87 degree traffic for several minutes and the temp never went above 190 degrees.
When mounting your fan, fabricate 4 aluminum "Z" brackets to keep the fan about 1/8" away from the rad fins. I can send pictures if anyone wants to see how it came out.
