Default heat?

I dont know for sure where this should go, but does anyone know how hot it can get under the hood of a na crossfire? I am mainly concerned about the intake pipes, how hot to they get? I dont have a thermo gun thing to check, if anyone can tell me I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

I did mine once and it was about 180 degrees in the engine, but it was a 90 degree day outside

I have an SRT-6, so your temps might be a little less, but I doubt it. I also have intake air sensors and coolant temp sensors monitored. I have a cheapo infrared thermometer that I measure the temps of my intake and intake manifolds with between runs at the race track. When it's hot after a run 140 degrees is not unknown. After I "cool it down" enough for my next run, 80-90 degrees is common for the intake and 110-120 for the intake manifolds.
