Get a thermostat and check on the fan assembly. If a clutch fan is present make sure it's properly shrouded. Electric fans make sure they are functioning correctly.
Do you have anything between the radiator and free air or between the fans and radiator? Have you done a hydrocarbon test, or leak down?
Do you know if the headgasket is blown?

Forget all that if you just wanted the temp to be lower by installing a radiator!
