I have the same radiator and fan set up as he does. I do not have a shroud. I have one of KC's big and nasty 482's and it hasn't gone north of 100C in the hot Florida sun and it was 95 last weekend when I took it out to the beach.....

I have the bypass hose hooked up just as it was when Keith built it, I have a 180 thermostat for a Ford with no holes drilled in it, straight water and a bottle of water-wetter.

I do have Cool-Flex hoses top and bottom, maybe that's it.

I believe it's in the engine set up myself. Waterpump, timing, T-stat, etc.

JMHO.....

I hope you can get this issue resolved though. It's probably something really simple and easy, you just need to find it.
