Not sure about temp for a 440 but what is the CFM rating for that fan. The fans on little V6 Taurus pull over 3500cfm.

Depends. I run a fixed fan and it keeps my 440 at thermostat temp during most driving but does slowly creep up a little during hot day stop and go driving. I would only start to get concerned once the temp topped 205-210.

i would think so i have one on an all out race motor will filled water jackets. and it keeps it on the high side of compfortable 210ish . so a stock build should be fine
