Ok, installed the wideband and started 'er up. The thing was pig rich, off the meter. So I leaned out about 8-10 boxes all by 10 "points" and the idle jumped from about 750 to 1300, haha. Guess I need to adjust the throttle plate some.

Anyway, my main concern is the coolant temp sensor. It's a GM unit, the AEM read 207 degrees by the time I shut it off. Is there a calibration that needs to be done? I did the wizard thing where you select what sensors you're using, and it was the only GM one there.

Thermostat is a stock temp unit at 195. Any tips? just let it do it's thing and make sure it doesn't go over 210 or 215? Or get a lower temp stat?
