Yeah I replaced the first engine 1 week later. This engine is from a lincoln town car, around 95,000+ miles on it and runs like a top.

Have a 2 row aluminum big block radiator on its way, and I just bought a set of Roush off road mufflers tonight. I'm going to see if they will fit before I modify them, if not I will resell them because I got a great deal on them($66 shipped, they are $520 new).

Yeah that definitely looks like it will do the job. Would I be able to just wire it up to my current relay kit?

I believe I have this kit

That kit doesnt right but maybe it would work. I used this with a SPAL 16in and it works great. Just make sure you have the appropriate replacement fuse just in case and make sure you have a alternator that can handle it. You may want to put your drive fan back on till you get a bigger electric fan.

It cools the car fine, I never had another fan on this car other than the one that was on my 6xxer.

It's probably because mine runs off intake temp and not radiator temp. My dad has the probe style kit you have linked on his truck.
