First make sure your radiator fins arn't plugged up then flush the coolant and install a new thermostat. I'd change the temp sending unit also, and see if any of this helps. Sounds and looks like a nice rig but also ATS has a bad rep around here from what I've read.

Search the forum there's threads about ATS screw ups and shoddy customer service, hopefully yours will work out good.
