Default how to run cooler???

My motor has been runing hot ever since I bought her. I wanna try and fix this problem but I dont know where to start.

I am currently running a Powerdyne supercharger, heads, cams, intake manifold, CAI, longtubes, o/r h-pipe and an aftermarket radiator. I also have an electric fan.

What can I do to make her run cooler?

intercool your setup. If its running hot already, that supercharger is going to cause problems down the road.

pull the upper rad hose, take the 2 bolts out of the housing... clean and reseal the gasket mating surface.
