Default what is the normal operating temp 90 300e 6cyl

Just got this car and hit a wild pig the first night home. radiator started leaking and was bent. Replaced the radiator and support bracket. everything seems fine but I was just wondering where on the temp gauge should this car run ? what is the normal high on the gauge
it usually runs just above the middle (80c)
it is in Celsius it is a 3.0 straight in-line 6. also idles around 500 (any ideas about this) the previous owner said the IAC? not sure
any help or opinions appreciated
thanks
James

my 300e ran any where from 90-120 depending on how hard it was working and what the outside temp was. As long as it is'nt going in to the red there should not be any problem
