Well i know the cooling systems in these cars has usually been able to keep them pretty cool, at least until the W/P goes out. If you're looking for the most performance and cooling effecientcy (spelling) the get yourself an electric water pump. It'l free up some horsepower and will provide constant flow in the motor just like stock. As for the radiator it'* probably good enough to handle anything for he time being, it'* still brand new. I'm not sure how many cooling fans your car has, it may be two but that could have only been on the heavier duty cars like the ssei or something. The real answer for yourself is pop the hood and look.

your rad has more than enough cooling capacity for you. If you want your car to run cooler get a 180* tstat and save yourself some money. The electric WP isnt a very rewarding mod for what you have done to your car so far, I wouldnt worry about it.

This all brings me to a question, And I have wondered this for a long time...
The 87-91 Bonneville with Heavy Duty cooling had a second fan... But was the radiator the same as a regular bonneville( These are all 2 core if memory serves )...
So with the HD cooling, did the bonnie get a 3 core radiator?
I'm also wondering the same for the 92-93 Bonneville with the tow package and or Supercharged... Were these 2 or 3 core radiators..?

If you are looking for better cooling, go to
www.evanscooling.com
Just adding their coolant is good enough, if you want to really go nuts, they have radiators, fans, smaller coolant pump pulleys, thermostats...the whole 9 yards.
