The owners manual that came with the 87 Corvette states this (If you have one) the book says 219 to 245. Yep that seems high to me but that is what its says. The oil temperature usually runs about 20 degrees hotter than the water temp. My 87 water runs around 220 in winter to around 236 in summer traffic. I did install a secondary fan for heavy summer driving and turn it on around 229 degrees. My Vet. has about 53,000 miles on it.

The normal engine operating temperature for a 1987 Mustang GT is around 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Anything above 220 degrees Fahrenheit might cause the engine to overheat.
225 degrees
The thermostat controls operating temperature. This occurs at a preset temperature (typically 195 degrees F. or so), which is usually stamped on the thermostat itself. The thermostat should be fully open about 20 degrees F. above the rated temperature. So your operating temperature is about right. If you have doubts, just replace the thermostat with a new one of the correct temp.
