I had cooling issues in my 77 as well, but I swapped the bumper and put a large center mounted Setrab and it did the trick.

My '74 had the same issue and I noticed a huge drop in temp when I switched to carbs because I was burning so much more fuel with a richer mixture. (Oxygen burns much hotter than gas)

If I were you I'd stuff the biggest fender mounted cooler you can with a thermostatically controlled fan. Don't worry about the oil lines so much.
