180 was not a good thing for my engine. It only ran that cool when it wasnt under any load. Hit a hill or tow something on a hot day that 180 was doing nothing. Might as well take it out.

Put the 195 in and it runs all the time within 5 degrees of that. Do jot see 180-200 degree temp swings like with the 180.



As for oil pressure, make sure you are reading it right. Seems lately people have been stressing out and the fault was the gauge was off.
