Default Small problems with my lt1 trans am

Well my 93 T/A still has a few minor things I'm working out. The water temp guage will never read close to right at all, when it is cold it is far left, and a full hot temperature it is barely breaking over the first bar. I've replaced both the sending units. What could the problem be?

Not an aftermarket one.

Perhaps your car runs that cool. I know mine does. Have you modified the cooling system at all?

It's stock cooling system, so it never gets close to half way up? (Straight up)?
