I do know that you can get several different types of fans that allow for a
different flow of air. If you truck over heats with the electric fan you
have simply find one that flows a higher amount of air. Also look at other
things like bigger radiators, fan shrouds, 2 fans in place of 1 or one push
and one pull fan. Try getting a separate trans cooler. This will help by
keeping the heat from the transmission from heating up the rad coolant as
much. These are things that friends and I have tried on older hot rods with
great success.
