I put a big pusher fan on the front of my 544's radiator and took off the water pump fan. This effectively cured the overheating at low speeds problems and the boilover (it kicked on even with the key off to cool the engine down). But without the engine fan it still seemed to have a little problem with higher speed use. I eventually put the radiator fan back on and it seemed a lot happier.

Note - this situation on my car is probably a little exxagerated because I have a small B16 radiator cooling down a big 2.2 liter B20 engine.
