OP, if you see temps in the 240's. Get an oil oil cooler. The ECU will start to pull timing at 240F. And go into limp mode at 280F. Get a 25 row. If you want to push it. Get a 34 row.

As for the oil to be at 180F is BS. Once the oil has hit 110F. The moisture in the oil will start to evaporate out. By the time it's at 160F. It's almost all gone. Remember, you're only dealing with 5 qts of oil. Not 7,000 gals. Oils work best between 130F to 190F. The engine has to operate at around 210F because of emissions. To help lower NOx emissions. The combustion temps have to be higher.
