i was having over heating problems with my svt as well.
it would be fine for a week then you would let it sit for 5 sec in traffic or parked and the gauges would max. i never drove it tell it shut down thow. and it never through a check engine light.
also the fan would work some times and not work other times.
it ended up being a exposed wire.
i know that sounds obvious now but i took it to a shop and first i was told that with no check engine light and the problem not acting up at the shop all they could start blindly replacing parts.
so i lived with it
finally i got the car to the shop while it was acting up. still not clear y the fans weren't coming on some of the time and were some of the time.
finally it blew a fuse and then i realized the problem. fixed the wires and now all is good.
im not saying this is your issue but hopefully it helps
