Magnum cooling

Nothing wrong with 200*. Most fwd cars with electric fans were designed to have fan come on around 220*, off at 195.
I just put a thermostat in a Chevy Cruze last weekend for a buddy's kid, and couldn't believe it but all listings I saw said that stat doesn't open til 221*.
My 12, 1/2 ton with 4.7 has a 195* stat and it runs between 200 and 203* on a warm day.
There is such a thing as being too cool as well.
I wouldn't worry about a 200* running temp although you said you have a 160 stat? That's the only surprising part is that you're that much above t stat rating.
I'd run at least a 180 in there if bet that engine runs at the same temp it does now.
Most of those have computers and emissions equipment that require the higher temps, too. This is an apples and oranges comparison.
