i'm not saying that it can't be the radiator that you have, i'm just saying you don't need an aluminum one. you may also want to check your oil cooler. it may need some R&R and cleaning. however, a stock radiator (or direct replacement) should be enough to cool your setup.

Its race ported pretty much a step before going to bridge, but sure sounds like it's J-bridge ported, pulls hard after 3800rpm.
Checked out the oil cooler and seems like it tore off the mounts that hold it up to the radiator and it was practically face down....oops. Fixed that. Drained the radiator, flushed it out and replaced with 2 Redline water wetter and all water. Does fine in traffic now but when the 100 degree weather if Im over 3krpm it starts to creep up. So Im pulling that radiator and replacing sometime this week. Ill take a saw-saw to the old one and see whats up. Thanks for everyones suggestions and opinions.
