The first thing you need to do is get an infared thermometer and verify that your temp gauge is accurate. Verify it through the range: my SW is accurate through some temps, then reads 20 degrees high in warmer temps.

Since you asked what we think; I run a 195 thermostat, so I certainly don’t think that seeing 200 on the gauge is something worth throwing money and Saturdays at - especially at 110 degrees outside temp.

I do agree with the earlier suggestion that you add a fan shroud. That likely will allow you to remove the pusher fans.
