440 needs to be Cool

This seems to be a very common problem on big block a body swaps as I talk to a lot of people at shows and forums that have this issue. Most of the time these people have aftermarket aluminum radiators, electric fans etc and still overheat. I believe the factory setup in most cases is more than adequate- 26" rad, shroud which is very important and 7 blade fan with proper thermostat. I think the increased space between rad and fan when using non-stock engine mounting methods is part of the prob.
