Default What would cause a 2wd Cosworth to run hot?

My saff seems to run very hot, as the temp gauge sits on the 'N' of 'NORMAL' when driving along. When stood still, it very easily boils over and loses a lot of water. The fans DO cut in, just below the red on the gauge.

So far i have tried:

Done a 'Sniff' test with came up ok
New thermostat
New Fan Switch
Flushed the system through with a good cleaner
Header Tank cap
Bypassed the water cooling on the T3 Turbo (which did drop it a little)

only thing i can really think of is maybe the rad is blocked?

any ideas to try would be great
