That’s about mine, but perhaps a little higher at WOT. I might need to back flush my heat exchanger of that can be done. I also plan to add VesselView to get more and accurate data.

Would it be best to change the thermostat if I have no idea what temp it is, or where it is actually opening? What thermostat is recommended for this motor?

I think stock is about 165 thermostat. Mine ran a high of 180 in the Havasu heat but typically would be 170-175.
FYI the Whipple supercharger kit replaces it with a 120 degree stat. It now runs about 140-150 with the same stock heat exchanger.
