From what I've heard, or as I like to say, "rumor has it" engine oil should not exceed 212, the classic boiling point. Some say it should be considered the same way as auto trans fluid. Which is generally recognized as a max of 200 F to be on the safe side. Note that virtually all auto trans utilize an oiler cooler of some kind.
