Too hot to touch for more than a brief moment (like ~2 sec) is about 60*C (140*F). The lowest grade of insulation used in transformers is rated 105*C (220*F). Put a thermometer on it if you are worried, but if you can hold your fingers on it that long I'd say it is running normally. Search the archives here and at Tubes for *hot* for lots of soothing replies to your concern.
