Aftermarket a/c or factory a/c? First thing I would
do is make sure the fan clutch is functioning properly. It might be getting
weak.
Your problem sounds like insufficient airflow.

Normally runs at 180, but in hot wx with AC on in stop and go traffic
or idling too long it will creep up past 210 b4 I shut the AC off and let it
cool down. Running factory air. Think I need to get more water
through it. ..Denny

Sounds like you have a good set-up there,Denny.
How hot is it getting now? I'm running basically the same stuff except for a
Vintage Air Frontrunner serpentine set-up and with a 160 degree
thermostat,mine almost runs too cool. Need to install a 195 thermo before
Winter.

Hi Clint;
Full factory shroud, factory 7 blade, clutch replaced several years ago
when the Radiator was rodded & tanked. Put in a bottle of
Redline water wetter and reduced antifreeze to 30 % (vs 50).. haven't
driven it in hot weather since.. Denny

Do you have the factory shroud? What type
fan blade? Fan Clutch?

Having some minor overheating problems with my 71 sbc
during hot wx, air cond on, in traffic..etc Earlier in the
summer there were some discussion/recommendations on high flow
pumps. Could you repeat plz? Will probably be a winter project.
Thanks,
Denny
