Default Dart SHP engine

I built a dart sb 400 with AFR heads and used team G intake. I'm running the Holley Sniper EFI and headers. It's 545hp and 550 tq and I'm interested to see if anyone else running dart block and what engine temps your running.
mine runs 197 down the road and 201-204 in city. Is this normal temps.
Thanks

Are you using the stock temp gauge? If so I bet its actually running cooler...200-210 wont hurt anything
