Default cosworth oil temp

Does anybody know what the oil temperature should be on a 2WD cosworth.

And when its red hot and the cooling fans come on.

Cheers

Are you afraid that you are running too hot? Cause I would say 105 during normal driving can be fine, but when you really hit it don't go over 115 or something. It can take quite a lot. And I am talking about degrees C
