just went through this whole problem...
I installed a Griffin radiator, new hoses, a 16" puller fans and a high flow Mr Gasket 180 stat. Running 50/50 mix..
the thing that seemed to help the most was the stat..
she currently runs 178-182 while driving, and jumps up to 215 while idling in traffic.
some guys i talk with are having luck with Water-wetter (some are'nt)..
I'm also installing an oil cooler to help keep that a little cooler and also a cowl scoop to help get rid of some more of the heat.
good luck, heating problems suk..
