It reads about 180F at normal temp (is this too high?)
It's perfect -- assuming you bought a 180 degree thermostat. They are available in 160, 180, 195, etc temperatures. 180 is probably the best for a street car, as oil is designed to work best at this temp. 160 is better for hp (assuming you retune the carb jets, etc), while 195 requires a high-pressure cap which might cause the cooling system to leak.
