If water is pumping out that's a good sign. Don't know the exact temperature, but it would be rather warm.

Buy a cheap temp gun at Harbor Freight and check the temp of the block. That will tell all.

Re: need quick question answered please.

At idle after warmed up it should be 140* F +/- 15* F. At WOT no more than 160* F.
