Coolant temp rarely goes above 70*C with the AC blasting in bumper to bumper traffic on a 100deg day. Again, I have NEVER had to bleed my system when servicing...

Sounds like you may have it licked- but still something you may want to consider.
Because my setup I'm not able to run shroud. Imo 70c might be too low. Everywhere I ask 180-195f is optimal for fuel. I'm not an expert by any means but seems about right.
