Did you solve the issue?

i believe so. it wasnt a real colling issue i put a new gauge on it and is seems to run cooler so i guess a bad gauge

Cool (no pun intended), I was going to suggest the Taurus V6 single fan that flows ~3300 CFM and is only $26 at LKQ. There are a couple of other things but sounds like you found the issue.
