    Default Normal Operating Temp

    Hey guys, starting to think the vh isnt overheating after all, can anyone tell me what the normal operating temp should be for the 5.0L? it has a 160 degree F thermostat in it and runs between 79celcius on the highway and then max about 98 on a hot day at traffic. this sound ok?

    cheers guys
