My cooling system sucks for Phoenix!!! What should I use?

My friend Beau told me that I need a ....

200 amp alternator

A Lincolin Mark VII Fan

New Water Pump (for the space)

New Pulleys

He said that the fans blow out 5000 CFM, so that should solve it.

have you thought about the chance of a leaking head gasket?

just the alternator might help too..pick up the voltage to the fan you have.. might not be working at full capacity..

I am just going to copy the cooling system of some of the guys around here.

It is better to be safe than sorry. I am going to go a little overboard if needed, just because of where I live.

I hope that Mark VIII fan isn't too huge. I know I will need a new water pump for it to fit though.

The Mark VIII is a fairly large fan. This is the only link in my favorites I could find to one. Its based on instaling one in an '88 GT.

I dont know what your engine mods are, but I had bad cooling problems with my moderately modded 289 in a '65. I used a shroud, high-efficiency 3-row brass(from NPD I think), 180 'stat and a 6-blade flex fan. Before it would boil over in 90-100* weather and after the above parts I could watch the thermostat cycle on the gage.
