T-Stat Temp?

Searched the first 7 pages of results. What thermostat temp are most people running for daily driven LS based performance engines? My tuner is pushing for 180F. Thanks.

I've heard the LS's "like" to run warmer, so I would guess most to run 180 or stock, but anything posted here is helpful, thanks.

180 for me in my 434. If I’m moving AT ALL, the car stays at 180. In traffic, or in the shop, it will get to 210, but then the fans knock it down to 195 very quickly.
