96 gt and cobras are cursed with over heating issues, due the radiator and ac condessor in front of it. Are left over from 5.0 production. Id change the water pump and temp senors if you havent already. And make sure the system is burped right.
Mine got hot when it was the npi motor i replaced the water pump and temp senosor, no more problems. Also removed my ac [ 2013-07-26, 06:17 PM: Message edited by: 70stang351w ]

Do a leakdown test and make sure you are not getting a over pressurized cooling system due to a head gasket leak. This can happen without smoke from the exhaust.
