Cooling issue

Got rid of the edelbrock water pump and it's better. At an idle I had a solid 1" stream coming into to the rad. Just imagine what it looked like at 3000 rpm. Went back to stock. Still heats up but not as bad.

I removed the T stat and it cooled off 10-15 degrees...I know thats a big no no but now it never overheats

Edit to add I just have a 340 but that trick is worth trying, IMO
