    Probably be a good time to do the pulley in case I need to drain the coolant for some odd reason...

    Charlie,

    Did you ever install a 160 deg. thermostat? Am going to do when I change my hoses. Have had one in my Denali XL(also 6.0) since 2003. Temp came down but looks like it runs at about 175 deg. on hwy. Let me know how you want to be paid... PayPal, Postal Money Order, Credit Card, Bad Check etc.....

    For that time period that was more true then now. We have way more control of fans now then back then and as long as its tuned it is fine as long as you dont go under 175-180. It needs to be a certain temp to make the most power and efficiency.

    Charlie, on the factory hoses, what are the plastic pieces just a bit up from the pump? Are they quick-disconnects or some sort of flow restrictor? I'm thinking they are QD but can't check without dumping my coolant....

    That was some of the delay finding out, but they are quick disconnects.
