Something doesn't sound right. What rpm do you have at idle and at cruse speed?
Sounds like a flow issue to me, either airflow or a restriction in the coolant flow. I suspect I don't have a ton more core area than you, but my temps go down at freeway speeds to ~165 if I remember. I notice I have a significantly larger cooling pipe cross-section... Might be something to look at.
