Welcome to Hotrodders....Sorry but this forum is for..Site Suggestions and Site Help. The question that you posted belongs in the Engine forum. That way the Engine Gurus will see it and give you a answer. My 99 Silverado temp runs from 195 -200. I bought it new and this is what it normally runs. They run the later models at a higher temps than they used to ...to get better gas mileage. Hope that helps ya out.
