Heating Up
I recently replaced the engine in my truck. It is a somewhat built 400M. When I put the new engine in I was having problems with it heating up. I have replaced the rad, thermostat and temp sensor. I thought I had the problem figured out until last night coming home I turned the lights on and the temp heated up. Any idea why this would happen or what would case it? I decided to see if it was really the lights that did it and if I turn them off the temp goes down, and if I turn them back on the temp comes up.

Heating Up
Have you physically checked the temp of the coolant with a candy thermometer?
Try removing the cluster and cleaning it up too.
It sounds like a better grounding through the cluster lighting i happening.
