How hot is too hot?

I just drove home on what is a slightly warm day ~90 degrees.
When I put the car in the garage I popped the hood to check on some work I had done. Man the engine was hot - even the body was warm to the touch. I pulled out my IR temp guage and started taking readings - is this unusual?
Exhaust Manifold - 426*
Battery 135*
Radiator 185 to 225 depending on where I shot
Air filter housing 135*
Power Steering Fluid tank 135*
Valve Cover 245*
This seems hot to me - and I would think that the fans on the radiator would run for a bit longer than they did...
Does this all sound normal?
