Thanks for the suggestion. I have thought that, if I can't find the problem and solve it, I can cut out a section of the bulk head above the radiator to allow air to flow into the engine compartment that way.

I already don't use the panel in front of the radiator because I have a fresh air heater with the intake duct in that bulkhead. Better to just figure out what's overheating in the engine compartment and fix it. That's my first priority.
