17 SS Coolant Issue

Hello guys,

Wondering if anyone else has experienced this or an idea of what may be causing it. Recently, my car has been heating up to around 195. If I accelerate or travel uphill, the temp gauge will drastically jump to around 210 but then go right back to 195. The fan will kick on and sounds like it's running full cycle and does not shut off until after I turn the car off.

I've had intake, headers, cam, 160 thermostat, tune and a catch can on since January but never noticed this problem until the last week.

I can't remember. Thinking of swapping it out though to see if it's sticking.

I was eyeing that up yesterday actually. Send me your PayPal and I'll try it out.

Pulled off the mishimoto 160 thermostat today and found this.
Safe to say that's what was causing my problems, in case anyone else has the same problem as I did.

I hear Katech is making a really quality Tstat now.

BTR has a great one for 25$. I do not think this is tune related
