At what temp do the fans kick on? What temp do you want it to run? Does it run cooler down the highway? Is your guage accurate? If you desire less than 195(I would) you need a cooler thermostat. I would go with a 180 stat, make sure the fans are kicked on at around 185(may need a manual switch), and verify the timing is correct and you aren't running lean.
