Have a crappy machine shop install my engine?

She runs usually between 200-208, I mean to the obsessed stangers that run 160 stats, that may seem high, but I personally don't think its running excessively hot (I still have the stock radiator).

I don't remember what a bone stock engine temp is (195-200?) but I don't think an extra 8 F would cause the scalding heat that I feel on my legs. If I rest my leg on the console, it literally becomes unbearable within minutes

I've barely driven her in a few weeks...
