V8 Flathead Overheating

I had a 50 that over heated do I put on a 6 bladed flex fan. I also pulled the heads and found foundry wires inside the water passages in the block. They are used to hold the cores together when the iron is poured. It never did run cool, always at 3/4 on the gage.If you put on a shroud it will really help.)
