Anybody measured the oil temperature? How does it compare to the coolant temperature?

My observations:
Normal Oil temperature runs @ 180 degrees*.
Normal Coolant temperature @ 205 degrees**.
Both are using real Autometer gauges.
*Oil temperature sensor is mounted down next to the OEM Oil pressure sensor port.
**Coolant temperature sensor is mounted in the threaded hole under the intake manifold...in what would be the 'lifter gallery'.
