Ok... First off... what kinda mods do you have on this car besides a fan and some pulleys? I ran a taurus electric fan w/ undrive pulleys, and a 180* stant thermotstat and the car never ran hot. First, take a thermometer, open the radiator, start the car and let it warm up, then see what temp your stat is actually opening at. You may have a bad stat... it happens, there like 8 bucks try another one. If you don't have a thermometer, let the car warm up and feel the upper radiator hose, if its soft your stat isn't open and no water is flowing.
After this, I would flush the radiator just to make sure theres nothing clogging it. If that doesn't work, your water pump might have gone bad. You say this is your second time going through this problem... what did you trty the first time to fix it?
