â??No. Engines are designed to run optimally at a particular temperature range, 
generally 185-195 degrees F. The cooling system should maintain that range in 
"normal" driving conditions, which may or may not not include 100 degrees F 
ambient temperatures for extended periods. 
â??
Your stock 2-row may work. You won't know until you try it. A 3-row (recored 
stock or after market aluminum) â??may do nothing more than give you peace of 
mind. 

â??A 165 thermostat only means the thermostat opens at 165. â??It doesn't mean 
the cooling system will keep the water temperature at165. 

FWIW, I'm replacing my stock â??radiator with a 3-row aluminum because it's 
starting to leak at the sides, and the aluminum radiator was under $200 vs $300 
to recore the stock radiator. Â Â
