You said you changed the fan clutch. I'm not familiar with these new replacements but I hear people talking about re-clocking the spring so the fan will start pulling air at a lower temperature than the pre-set higher temperature of the replacement clutches.
That may be the missing link here.

just lurking but learning. i have always thought my 435 ran on the warm side. i kind of expected a high performance engine with a 4.11 gear would be that way (not meant for long road trips or stop and go traffic on a hot day). the car always seems to run best with the temps between 50-60 degrees. enjoying the thread.
