Crossflow Temp

What should the engine temp be on these engines? I have the water which goes up to about 90C but the oil remains at a cool 45-50C.
I do have a lotus alloy sump installed on my 1600 x-flow,but is the water temp too high?

The thermostat on these engines opens at 88c, so 90 sounds fine!
