I run a 180 deg. It should be noted that I live in SoCal where July/Aug temps are frequently triple digits.
I drove the car the other day and it was 110 outside and my water temp, when driving, was about 190 and crept up to about 200 when idling. With 50/50 antifreeze there was never a problem. I do have a good radiator
I use the vintage precision thermostat housing and really like it.
