yup, going to check the stat,,dont have candy therm,,probably a good thing,get my #ss kicked,fan is running right direction,not loosing antifreeze,fan kicks in at bout 195,,i just think thats to hot,,maybe not,its gone up to 200 and I got scared,,this is all happening on 50 degree day,,when it gets 70 or 80 outside then not sure,,it has aluminum heads also,but from what ive been told 200 is not abnormal,,its a new engine so maybe it will simmer down in a while,,thanks for all the input guys,,
