When one of our cars is sitting in traffic it's going to heat up. At idle with no air circulation it's just going to happen. Sitting in traffic during the summer you may see temps as high as 230 or 250. As long as it cools off when you start moving again it shouldn't be a huge problem. Everybody panics when the engine hits 250*, but the factory set the thermostat for the fan on the 3.2L models at 245*, so I don't think that temp range is the point where the engine turns molten.

I'm wondering if I can adapt the 3.2l blower/sensor configuration to my sc 3.0 l
