Default C6 questions?

I just recently sold my trans am and was looking into a C6 corvette. If i decide to buy one it will most likely be an ls2 C6 6 speed manual with 50,000-70,000 miles on it. Ive read the stickies, but is there anything else I should know about them before I start looking. Car will be some what daily driven meaning i'll swap between it and a jeep. At what tempurature should it be runnning at? How much oil pressure should it have?

200-210 temps are the norm.40-60 psi. for oil.

Good choice on a C6 but I would look for at least a '08

Why not shoot for a Z with similar miles. They are dropping in price. I'm starting my hunt soon.
