cooling issue....custom car

I have a 914 porsche with a 13b. having trouble keeping it cool. I am using a ford f-150 radiator which is mounted way up front. (engine is in the rear). You'd think that with the coolant traveling all the way to the front of the car, then going through that big radiator, then all the way back to the engine, that it would be plenty cool....but it's not. Running around 200 degrees and sometimes it tries to get up to 210 degrees, but I shut her down. Yes, I am also using a radiator cooling fan.
Do they make aftermarket water pumps to help? or different pullies for the water pump? Any ideas?
