What is this achieving for you? My 3.6 hardly ever breaks 210* and only if towing up hill or into the wind. Sounds like you chose the wrong powertrain for your use case and are throwing money away tying to out engineer Chrylser.I still haven’t got the supplemental oil cooler in. Due to the dimensions and my bumper, I will have to cut the frame horns, make brackets and a skid plate.
I have started to pay very close attention to my throttle position % on my banks and I’ve found that over 40% raises temps into the low 230. 45% brings it right around 240 and 50%+ it quickly climbs into 250s if sustained. This is very useful for me because I can easily back off 5% on a grade and hold the same speed or feather the throttle in and out of the desired zone. I’ve only found on steep sustained grades at hwy speeds, it is better to downshift into 6th gear and keep the throttle position at a lower %.
