The real question is.... what temperature is "too high" and when should i be worried?

Ill be getting an oil cooler within the next few weeks.
Good idea. I am only at 220*-225* on the freeway, and am often over 250*-260* within a mile or two of spirited driving. I am having mine (oil cooler) put on Sept 20 when they replace the short block.
