Hi John

Even with the radiator cleaning did they make sure there is good flow thru 
all the cores? Does the trcuk run hot while driving or more so when just in 
traffic or at an idle?If the later is true I would suspect blocked cores. You 
say they did all the checks of the oil and coolant so no chance of maybe a 
cracked head or blown gasket? It is unusual for a 460 to run very hot. You 
also said all the obvious repairs...did the replace the thermostat?
