Default LS swap in CRX Question (Radiator)

Okay, I noticed that after I've been running a little while, my motor runs hot pretty quick. I'm wondering if it's becuase I don't have two fans cooling this big-*** radiator, or I nee to switch to a half radiator so that my radiator is not so damn close to my headers. What do you guys think I shoud do at this point?

Bleed your cooling system, running a cooler tstat and hardwire the cooling fan to ignition on... I've never had a cooling problem with ANY of my crx's or b/turbo setups.
