Default Yikes!!

You really have a problem!!
I'm not any kind of expert but I would try advancing the timming a little at a time and see if runs any cooler. I run my 67 about 12* initial with a 400/2801 cam/3:55 gears and a RR. Run runs 185 on the highway all day long. I screwed up and retarded the timming last week and temps went up most rapidly to over 200. Got my timming re-set correctly for my combo and it runs cool again. Just a thought !!!

I have a flex fan and no shroud, had bad luck with fans and shrouds, see my pics on previous thread a couple of post down. Bent fins on alum. rad.
Hope you find a fix soon
