running temp of g16b

hey
i just installed a after market temp sensor in my sierra and i went for a drive into town to get some oil. as it needs an oil change. and on the way in it sat at just below 90. but on the way home it almost hit 100. im guessin this is getting a bit on the toasty side. i was wondering what temp the engine should run at. my guess would be the same as the thermostat. which is 87 i think. btw i did a search and couldnt find anything.
