Default 65 "389" temp runs at 190 no matter what I do?

Thanks everyone who replied to my thread! I have learned the following; I need to reposition the clutch fan (I didn't order the fan blade spacer when I purchased the fan with clutch) and the fan blade now just meets the shroud when it should be 2/3rds in the shroud, also I need to change fuel lines to steel ones, and I may have to get an electric fuel pump ( just had new mechanical one installed).
I forgot to mention on my original thread that I just had a remanufactured Carter 4 barrel carb installed, it is ideling perfectly (once warmed up) but the car doesn't have that initial quick burst of power like the old Carter carb had, any suggeations?
