My 401 runs right at 190-195 with a 192 degree thermostat. Make sure of a couple of things. If the car is airconditioned, make sure you have a good shroud that's forcing all the air to go through the radiator. A couple of fellow nailheaders have found that some of the factory setups have the fan too far from the radiator. They've spaced their fans about 1" from the radiator and have been happy ever since. If you do move your fan that close, make sure your motor mounts are good and solid.
