It was 102 here today too. Mine was peaking about the same temp with the A/C on. (I also have a 96) Came down to 190-200 when moving, back up to about where yours is when stopped.
I also still have the factory waterpump and radiator and I suppose it's about time, lol.

It's warm alright, but not overheating.

It was 103 here today. When I run my A/C, the temp stays just below the 210 mark while driving and will creep up to 210 if I'm sitting still.
