May have it solved!!!!! 444-544

Today I changed the water pump back to the old one, which works, to see if it increased flow. Thought this helped and I guess it did since the water decreased from 212 to 209. It was still running very hot. I flush and tested the radiator and the flow was great. No problems there. As I watch the gauge move higher and higher I remembered someone saying to set a fan in front it. I have a nice floor fan. The water temp dropped to 192 and stayed that way for 45 minutes. I also retarded the timing to 5 instead of ten. So if all my investigation is correct I need a high velocity fan. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get a high velocity fan that connect to the water pump. It was 113 today and 105 in the garage. Is 192 a good temp to run at?
