replaced fan clutch - is new clutch defective?

1986 300sdl fan clutch
the bugger seemed to be running much warmer than the other three diesels in my stable. did flush radiator. and new thermostat. replaced the fan clutch this weekend as per my searching here the fan should stop in a turn or two of shutting off engine. mine spun a lot longer. well new clutch spins quite a bit after warm shut down. and the temperature guage stills reads above 90+ at highway speeds. fan clutch purchased here on fastlane. a behr unit. is this new clutch defective? and by instruction i had the thing positioned vertically for the month or two it was on my work bench. any advice is surely appreciated.
