I did notice im running 190 deg f now as before was 183 with a 180 stat. I prob iv had since i purchased is from 50% throttle to 90% its lime the timing is hunting but full throttle its fine, any thoughts? During the cam install i replaced the knock sensor harness. It did this hunting thing before the cams swap and before the sc was installed by me. Thoughts?

Kinda hard to inderstand what you are asking but...
I just rebuilt top end. New head gaskets and 3vz cams. While i was in there i heard one of my coil packs arcing through the back of the pack down to the valve cover. Ive been driving the truck for 3-4 years with a slight miss under heavy load or acceleration and it was this bad coil pack the entire time. Truck runs better than it ever has now.
I prefer the 3vz cams. When i merge into traffic i can really run 1st and second gear all the way to redline. Truck pulls all the way through the gear now. If im worried about torque i can just switch into low gear🤷🏼*♂️ My 2¢
