That is true, I've heard that the LS3 might run slightly hotter yet as well (I'm not just taking a tit for tat stab at the LS3s, I really did hear that LOL).
The key to cooling either one down is to pop the hood open as often and for as long as possible when the car is parked and yes the aforementioned 160 degree thermostat/fan settings will help even more.
