Need some help

I have completed the swap in my signature and the car drives great ! but I have two problems, my car runs hot. The tempature just keeps going up, even when driving down the road. I have a Griffen aluminum radiator, Edelbrock Victor aluminum water pump, and 180 degree stat. I have a derale 16'' electric fan that is not hooked to the computer, it is an adjustable control and the fan comes on at 190 degrees, but the car does not cool down. All of the hoses are hot, so the coolant is running through and is mixed 50/50. What are you guys running for fans? Do I need dual fans?

next my speedometer is not working, it is hooked up, I did not have much time to investigate further. My car was a 305 TBI, do I need a different VSS for the TPI swap? The car is a 1990 Camaro with a 700R4 and it has an electric speedometer. Any ideas?

Thanks for the help.
