235 is the temperature at which the stock fan switch turns the fan on in an electric fan system.... in other words, according to GM, the engine doesn't even need cooling at all until it reaches that temp.

235 therefore doesn't qualify as "overheatin". It is perfectly normal, and within the engine's design behavior.

A little more description of what you're dealing with would be useful.
