    94 F350 4x4 Carb engine 5.8 351w---lifted 37x12.5x16.5 tires---410 gears---c6 trans 3 speed auto----is going up to around 220 pulling boat at 50 or over-----2000 procraft 20 ft 200 hp mercury----not pulling boat its not over heating. It has got a all aluminum radiator 3 core in it-----because of lift kit had to put a 2 fan made with shroud electric cooling for the radiator---has a 180 thermostat----fans are working fine and can feel real hot air being pulled through the radiator---here's the questions I have----should I convert fans to push instead of pull because of thickness of radiator and condenser together----should I put flex fan back on it to help keep all that hot air out of bay when and if I change fans to push instead of pull---should I go another way like electric racing cooling water pump---Been advised different ways as in changing gears in rear and front axles could do the trick but that's high as I have priced it .Every things new on this motor as well as the motor--and yes I know I should be pulling boat yet till I get more miles on it less than 500 on it now---just trying to see if there's another way I can go that might help so I can keep temp down and rpm down cause if change gears it will go up.
