[H & E]

Hello all. This is my first time posting in the first gen section as most of my web posts pertain to the 5th gen car. My beloved '69 is running a 8.5:1 355 with Edelbrock performer RPM heads, Edelbrock blower cam, B&M 142 blower at 6 pounds, a boost referenced Holley 750 DP, MSD 6AL and distributor, Stainless works long tubes and Magnaflow header back exhaust. I've got it set up with a Griffin 4 core radiator, 180 degree thermostat, mechanical water pump and dual electric fans, but it still operates at 220 degrees no matter the ambient air temperature. On the warmer days, after I shut the car down, the water temp will climb to a scary 250+ degrees unless I leave the fans running.

My question is... Can anyone think of anything I'm over looking that may help the motor run cooler? Am I overreating about the temperature? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
