I want to thank you all again for your suggestions even though we're getting off my original topic...
I want to remind everyone again of my situation...
Before I rebuilt the engine, it was a stock 302 with an AOD with the usual bolt ons, stock fan and shroud, a/c worked mint and the engine never overheated. I tore the car apart to freshen up the 302 and it morphed into a 347 and built AOD with a stall convertor and Lentech valve body, this is where I'm at now with it running hot. Today I took the front accessories off just for my own piece of mind, as you can see from the pictures, the head gaskets are in correct, thermostat was a 160 degree (forgot is was that) and was installed correctly.
A lot of you guys are saying it's my fan/shroud setup, it overheated EXACTLY the same when I still had the oem fan and shroud installed.
I want to remind everyone that I have oem pullies, new Motorcraft water pump, rotating the correct way, SVE aluminum rad with the rad cap it came with,
Mishimoto fan/shroud combo, I have the Holley set to turn both fans on at 185 degrees, fans are PULLING air through the rad. It will sit and idle at approx. 190 degrees and not overheat, as soon as I start driving it, it will climb to about 222 degrees before I get chicken and shut it off. I'm at my wits end here. Looking for any ideas you guys may have.
