Your truck will be warmer than 160 inside the block. The thermostat will only close if the coolant coming in is colder than 160. Even on 30* days my 160 thermostat with the stock electric fans set for low on at 185 and high on at 195, the idiot gauge never goes below 185. Before I changed the temp was anywhere from 200 to 240 in the stock settings. I noticed a big difference at the track in short idles that would climb to 230 in a heartbeat. Now it only gets to 195 in idle.
The thermostat is worth the money if you want the temp to be 185 not 200+++++
