   Terry,
 Your problem may  not be the fan. You might need to change the size of your 
water pump pulley. If your pump is turning too fast, it pushes the water 
through the radiator too fast, ( water doesn't stay in rad. long enough to 
cool down. )  I know a lot of dirt track racers have this same problem due to 
the high RPM 'S that they run. They have to change their pulleys, and some 
have to put in a flow restrictor in the rad. hose.
       Just something to think about before you buy any new fans.
