Default Good Cooling Tips

Alright guys, I've looked around and seen some here and there, but considering the importance of a cool running truck, I figured it might be a good idea to get everyone's cooling tips (engine, trans, etc.) together in one place. Most people already know a few, like a trans cooler, low temp t-stat. But I know some of you have got some cooling tips that would help a lot. So list what ya got! Thanks for the help.

an electric fan, I noticed 5-10 degree cooler running with my K&N FIPK, coolant flush (if never done so. I noticed a huge difference in temp when I did mine the first time).

How do you insulate your fuel rails? As long as mine are out of the truck it would be a good time to wrap them.
