I don't think I've ever seen my temperature gauge in what I'd consider the "normal" area of the gauge. Even after I updated the cooling system (rodded out radiator, new hoses, new thermostat, flushed block, rebuilt heater box) it does not seem to behave any differently. Just seems to always be on the hotter side. I've been told this is pretty much par for the course on these cars. The accuracy of the gauge isn't great, but the reaction time is.
