Cooling the beast

I currently have a Mr. Gasket 16" 2100 cfm electric fan... it works great for local driving, but I went on a couple hour drive and my car drastically heated up... I do not have a shroud on the radiator... here's my question:

Should I upgrade my fan/restore the clutch fan/put a shroud on it/upgrade my radiator?

Also, what's the best e-fan to use and is it worth it to get a fatty radiator?

Spending $300 on a fan and $700 on radiator sounds ridiculous to me by the way. ^_^

Upgrade the rad - the stock FC ones sucks.

I dunno who quoted you $700, but Absolute Radiator is selling the Fluidyne for a little over $400.
