Overheating with new windshield.

10:45 am: I have a 2017 with a jeep radiator on the back. I have just put on windshield which has caused a high pressure to build behind the radiator at speed above 40 miles an hour. And it will allow no airflow, causing an overheating issue. This is what I'm trying to do. I put a foil on the roof, and I want to see if that will work. If anybody's tried this, maybe chime, in, I know I could put bigger fans, but there's times when I go 70+ so will those fans even pull at 70? I don't know (wish I had a wind tunnel LOL,) anyways question for everybody. Let me hear, thanks.

2:00 pm: Just went on a hot 40-mile run hitting 65-70 at about 10-15 minutes at time & got up to 225 & would shut it down. I think the foil helped a little bit it took longer to get to that temp but still did not cut it. I could actually the pressure reverse & hit the back of my neck. I also had the fans on all the time.
So, I'm thinking 10" fans & higher cfm SPAL fans or maybe go with 3 fan unit, what do you all think.
