Default Inline stat operating temps?

Running the Extinct inline stat, all is well. New AB long block, new everything, ‘00 Disco 2.
Mid-80’s outside temp, Scan gauge will run 186-190 stop and go driving, highway speeds 186-188.
90’s + outside temp and i’ll see temps 190-202.

No leaks, all good, but wondering if the temps seem OK.

Thoughts?

Sounds about right, maybe a touch higher than I woudl like. Lift? Winch? Bumper Lights? Oversize tires? New fan clutch?

Ok, your temps are completely normal for that gear. Winch, lights, larger tires, lift, all increase the load a little, burning more fuel creating more btu's.

I’m seeing similar temps on my d2 with a new AB motor, 35s, regeared, metal bumpers, rear swing out, front winch, roof rack, armor. My d2 also has a flowkooler water pump and fan from Chevy.
