Default Cooling issue help needed....

Looking for any advice to help with my cooling issues. I have a blown BBD in my 1964 Belvedere. I only have 6 PSI max boost with 28 degrees total timing (pump gas). I run a 2 row 31X19 split tank/ cross flow rad ( http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS+Performan...52039/10002/-1 )with dual 12" flexalite fans ( http://www.jegs.com/i/Flex-a-lite/400/575/10002/-1 ), CSR waterpump and a high flow 160 thermostat. The car is fine driving down the road but as soon as I get stuck at a set of lights, the temp starts to creep up. I'll go till I hit 200 degrees then have to pull over, shut off the engine, and let the water pump and fan cool the car (2-4 min to get back to 150). Our outside temps here don't get much more than 70 degrees out side so its not like I am trying to cruise in Vegas. I'm thinking maybe to install a chiller under the blower to help, but not sure if that would even work... Anyone out there have any suggestions???? -Thanks!
