Lack of back pressure will *not* result in coolant not flowing well. Back pressure slows down flow.

Thanks for the encouragement, Ed.  The problem is definitely lack of coolant flow as the rad does not even get medium warm.  I do have ducting to the rad, but have only run it with the cowl off so far.  The problem is circulation, no doubt.  How to fix that is still the big question.  I am thinking about installing an in-line thermostat from C&R.  Do you think that there is any chance that the lack of back pressure is causing the coolant to not flow well?
