Hey Guys,
Thanks for all the suggestions in my other thread. I was able to get my 69 RR 383 with a lopy cam running pretty good by given the timing 12 initial and 36 full. I tried 18 initial but it would backfire and not run well, it seems to like the 12 and 36. Any way, I still have one problem. The temp, while idling moves up slowly and overheats. When it reached 220 I shut it off. I have an aluminum wizard rad with 1 " tubes and a fixed 18" 6 blade fan. My options for this is to get a shroud (383 22" rad originally did not come with it) or go with a 4 spal fan setup, both from wizard cooling? The cheaper option is a shroud but I don't know if that will work and don't want to waste the money. How does the 4 fan(puller) spal setup sound? Do you think that's better than going the shroud route and would it work better? Below is the link to the fan setup. As always thanks for your input!

One more note: I live in FL so it gets hot and also will be adding classic air conditioning.
