One million, six hundred thousand, two hundred and eight one threads on this issue. Do a search and find the answer.

Bottom line, 170TS, larger radiator, more coolant and move to Canada----that worked for Oldcolt.

Summit has the Thermostat. The fan on these trucks is hydraulic driven off the PS pump. The computer has it programmed to come on around 200. If you want it cooler, you have to get a SCT tuner and a tune that includes starting the fan earlier. The benefit of the tune is that it runs better also.

You are in SoCal, correct?

If I were you, I'd take the truck over to see Todd at A&C Performance in Murrieta. He is about the most knowledgeable Viper guy on the planet.
