My experience with downflows.
948 Bugeye with later plastic fan no problems in traffic gets up to 210 
after about 10 mins @ 75+mph on days over 90. (I am planning to try a 
larger pulley, possible cavitation?). 

66 Sprite 1098 plastic fan no problems, owner drives hard but not real 
fast.

1275 Bugeye worn out motor, overheats in traffic on 90+ days added 
electric fan, problem gone. 

My .02 see no reason to convert to cross flow.
