Hi all. Could anyone tell me what the standard 8 engine operating temp would be under normal cruising conditions. Just getting car back together and its running 165 to 180 on country backroads with inclines and decents. Cruising at an average speed of 30 to 40mph. Shutters are wired open. Engine is fresh. Any suggestions or is it right in the proper range and nothing to worry with? Thanks for replies.
