I'm personally not a "fan" of flexies. Also, you don't say what your location is. 210 at idle in Miami in July is different than 210 at idle in Minneapolis in July.

Like Dan said, don't underestimate the power of a fan shroud. How's your current fan clutch? Regular or heavy duty? How many cores in the radiator? Is it a good quality or a McAuto Parts special?

Soooooooo many variables....
