Because you are addressing the area that does the least, with something that will offer a very minimal increase.
What the system needs to work better is more cooling power at the manifold. Even a huge H/E doesn't do much for actual temps, the stock one works fine if your A/C is off. A dual-pass will do more for your IAT2's than any H/E setup.

I'd rather see a big tank plumbed in for the same results.

More capacity will always slow the rise of temps, and as I said since it will be in front of the condenser pack it will get slightly better airflow, although this will be offset by it blocking the original H/E itself.

alot of you no it alls need to listen when the originators speak up

I also would not run a fan on the front of the h/e, it will restrict the airflow at higher speeds, a puller fan would probably work too though, id be afraid it wouldnt allow the condenser/he/radiator get enough flow.
