what kind of rad are you going to run

Mount an aluminum radiator in the stock location, and use 2 pusher fans. Get a cooling panel to force more air through the radiator at speed, run a high pressure radiator cap, and a race thermostat. Either get a vented hood, cut a hole in your stock hood, or use spacers to lift the rear of the hood off the hinges. The venting will not help at speed, but it will improve cooling at idle and in traffic when the fans are working the hardest. You can also install a good oil cooler to help keep the oil temp under control, this will make the coolants job of cooling the engine easier. Hope this is helpful.
