What is a good operating temp?? At idle? WOT??

I just installed my exhaust temp sensor/gauge and at idle I'm reading about 980 degrees. I called Dan "The Fastman" Arcand and he says that sounded about right for a 5.9 V8. The bung is installed right on the header pipe about 3" away from the head.

I'm also specially interested on what temps you guys experience with a supercharged application as I'll be installing a Kenne Bell soon.

Thanks in advance!!!!




John
