Is your engine brand new? My engine hasn't ever been rebuilt and it sits at 180 pretty much all the time - even in the 90+ degree summer. It has stock radiator, fan, and water pump.

Do you have a stock radiator? Stock fan? 50/50 coolant mix or straight water? If your engine is brand new, maybe it'sjust more efficient?
