Engine Coolant Temps
I was reading about the temps for when the fans kick on and what is normal temps, etc. My SS I feel the fan engage at 194f. Reading the posts however, state that fan 1 kicks on around 204 and the high fan around 230? The highest I have seen since having my car has been this past month (120 degree weather in Vegas) at 201 and it was while at idle and went back down once moving.
My 06 LS the fan kicks on around 212 and I've seen it as high as 223. So with the SS what is the actual normal temp range? What temp does yours engage?

Mine usually kicks the low speed on at 194*, and high kicks on at 196*. From there it creeps to 199*, then drops back down to 194* and shuts off the high and low kicks off at 192*. Cruising I usually see 183*, but this is all in Illinois so hottest I ever see is usually low 90's, but mostly it's 80's in the summer with massive humidity.
