I have a jeep cj7 with a 400 small block and I spent a ton of money trying to get that thing to quit over heating and found that it was the fan shroud was too close to the rad and it was the same style as cold case has, I went from 210 deg to 190 deg just from getting rid of that shroud and now here again I am having issues with the cold case and it has the same style shroud.
I will post my results with the different fans later this week.
Those temps are normal for a modern engine
You are not overheating
