Oil Temp in Owners Manual

I've been reading various threads on this forum regarding Oil Temps and most everything I've read said 220 degrees F is way too hot. I just downloaded a Porsche Owners Manual online and it says that anything under 300 degrees is ok.

I was running on the highway a few weeks ago at 70 degree ambient air temp, 70-80 mph and my oil temp was in the 220-225 range. I have a 1976 2.7 C.I.S with an 11 blade fan, no thermal reactors, Mobil 1 Synthetic oil and new head studs.

Any thoughts on this info in the Porsche Manual?
