It turned out to be 2 things. I found a vacuum leak (Carb gasket) and I re-bled the system and got some more air out. I also replaced the fan clutch just because. I thought that was the final fix. The engine idles great even with the A /C on. I took it for a ride and the temp was still up to 205 under heavy load so I decided to check the accuracy of the NEW temp gauge I installed last year. Purchased a laser thermometer at H.F. and the temp at the water neck is 190 when the gauge reads 205 which from what I have read is normal. Hope this helps someone else! Thanks for all the advice!
