Most Chevota over-heating is caused by:
(a) Marginal radiator. Has the MAF alum rad got enough gph flow rating?
(b) Wrong thermostat. Yours sounds fine.
(c)Electric fans or flex fans. Electric fans in themselfs are not poo-poo, most people simply do not use anywhere near enough fan. Electrics need to be 3500 cfm minimum!!!!! Flex fans----joke, joke, joke
(d) Engine runs cooler when there is a fan shroud, BUT BUT BUT engine runs coolest when zero percent of fan is inside the fan shroud. (SAE test results, I won a law suit on this back in the 80's)
(e) Engine too close to firewall. These rigs will run 240 degrees on the coldest day of the year.
