So I just got a new super cooler for the 78, it has a 460 that is completely stock, timing straight up, new water pump, new thermastat, new hoses yada.
I put a set of twin E fans off of a chrysler town and country on it becasue I don't have a fan or shroud and they are spendy, the fans move an incredible amount of air. When I'm in the snow barely moving holding the throttle at 3 grand it starts getting hot, I have let it get to 210 before and it just keeps going. My wheeling buddy has a 400 with a stock rad and a mechanical fan and he can hold his at 5 grand all day and never break 190 degrees. I know this is a whole different animal but I can't even follow him, much less make my own trail. I can already see that this will be a no-go in the mud also.
So what am I doing wrong? Also if there is a better place for this thread please put it there. Sorry for the long post..
