How much is it heating up/cooling down?  Is the thermostat working ok?  What size thermostat is it?

as far as i know the thermostat is good. it stayed one temperature with my clutch fan... but since i put the electric... like i said when im sitting it heats to about 210 . When going down the road it cools to barely off of cold so about 80

Barely off the "C" on the stock gauge?  That is 160, not 80.
Is the fans thermostat controlled?
