anything bewteen 180 and 220 is good....
on my race car with an oil cooler, I just use duct tape on those days when the outside air temp is below about 60 degrees, pretty much anything above that, it needs no tape to keep the oil temp in the desired range.

Cool/cold oil doesn't flow thru the engine well, and doesn't lubricate as well as hot oil.......

I'll try that trick with the tape. That little cooler must be pretty effective. Thanks.
