Read the car and driver magazine article about it. Lot of us enthusiasts would agree that a minimal 19row cooler would have been awesome as a integrated part. 19row takes off 10 deg. 25 takes probably about 25. I live here in so cal and it was 111 today in san jacinto/moreno valley. With my 34 row cooler my oil temp was 200 in city traffic and when I hit the hwy it dropped to 185. Oil will last longer, engine will last longer. So when I turn the key, I have no worry. don't know what this guy is referencing to above me.
The 350 doesn't have a oil temp gauge, how would you know what it runs. If they never installed a gauge, you wouldn't even know about it.
