A temp vs viscosity graph should tell you what you need to know. I assume that it will be close (enough) to what is used for engine oil but don't know for sure. I'd shoot for 180-220 F operating temp unless I got a differing opinion from someone that knows what they are talking about.

Edit: I see gomer_110 posted a graph. Nice find.
