I can control the coolant temps and keep them below max fairly easily. But the oil temp seems to run at the high end of the range; particularly if you use rpm settings above 2400. Any thoughts on how to control this ?

It's really the high end of the gauge, but not necessarily high. The oil cooler airflow is controlled with the main cooling flap handle. Also, keeping RPM's down is always a good idea. Your cruise can be much less than 2,400 RPM.
