Default Cooling fan issue

Ok guys I am wondering if my cooling fan is supposed to keep running after I turn the car off. When the engine is hot that is. It was over 100 today and my car was running a little warm. I might have a fan issue going on.

Well it didn't heat up on me today. I flushed it and went to a 180 stat last week. My fan is running right. I think I will be needing a new radiator soon. I think it's a little plugged up. Any recommendations? I was looking at the Mishimoto and wondering if it will drop right in or not.
