The car is presently painted Lamborghini Titanium with silver stripes. All along it has been my plan to repaint it to a more original color. That's been a "Fall 2009" event and my preference would be to not pull the body until then. I have a bigger fan and shroud coming and even if all we are doing is masking the problem, I may live with it until the fall so that I only have to remove the body one more time. But let's go down this path for the sake of discussion...

If I pull the body and it still overheats, then what is wrong? What about the engine >>specifically<< could be causing this?
