Stupid question: Could the maximum operating temperatures for (some of) the new planes just be taken from data for older planes?

After all, the temperature at which an engine starts to suffer damage doesn't change if it's mounted on a different aircraft.

B5N2 = Nakajima Sakae 11 engine = also installed on the A6M2 Model 11.
B-24D & TBD Devastator = P&W R-1830 engine = also installed on the F4F.
IK-3 = Avia-built Hispano-Suiza 12Ycrs = also installed on the B-534 and the MS-406.

It looks like the Ki-45 will need new engine temperature data, though, since there's not an existing flyable plane in the game that uses the Mitsubishi Ha-102 engine.
