I think you have gotten a lot of great advice. Definitely check for a mouse house, review all the CIS work you have done.
And I have to 2nd Ian - I was looking for an SC with a later engine, but “bought the seller” on my ‘76. There had been A LOT of work done on mitigating heat for the 2.7: 12 blade fan, Elephant lines to a Turbotrol front cooler. I’d address everything mentioned by the experts in this thread and then add a front mount cooler and lines. My 2,7 rocks all day long at 210, even driving across western Kansas for hours after I purchased it in Columbia, MO.
