Will, 200 isn't anything to worry about (w/ a stock Tstat) since the stat
doesn't open until 195. 210 is considered "normal" as well, especially in
the summer.

I would def. be going to the dealer concerning the valve covers though.....

I have added radiator
-relief to
-try and get the coolant temps to stay manageable,but I still have to run
-both fans in the winter to keep it under 200.During the summer, I
-was having
-to run the heater on full blast with both fans running to keep it under
-200.It was brutal hell in Texas at 112* outside and the heater
-running full
-blast inside the truck! If I stopped for any length of time,the temp gauge
-would go up towards 210, and I would have to shut it off,which I
-don't like
-to do.Glad to hear you're not having any problems though.Take care,
