You can see my mods below. Mine runs plenty cool on an oil cooler.

With your mods.. if it's running excessivly hot you are most likley running too lean somewhere in your throtle range. Probably at the needle.

you could get some tinner scoops it may not help as much as an oil cooler but it should help a little...check your jets also
