Coolant temp...

What's your average coolant temp reading in celsius and what mods if any do you have that would affect the cooling system. Thanks.

Depends on what thermostat you run.
160F = 71C
170F = 77C
180F = 82C
190F = 88C

What's the factory thermostat? I'm guessing around 188-190?

My 160 stat will allow my truck to operate between 176-178. Note that RWTD reprogrammed my fans to turn on at a lower temp.

factory on the L is 180
factory on the n/a f150 is 190
it has been debated that 160 should be the lowest you should go
of course this is in F
