I need a better oil cooler...

220* F is fine. Try the arc fins for a modest drop -- you really aren't seeing temps that point to the need for a cooler.
Now if you start tracking it -- that might me a different matter, but your range is is safe, if
slightly warmer than optimal for max power (and I mean like a 10-15* F drop would be perfecto).
