I have been seeing 210 to 215 at 100 deg ambient here in TX.

I just switched to synthetic (Pennzoil 5w30) and will see if that affects it at all.

With an oil cooler it tends to regulate the oil temp on the high end. Mine seems to have a ceiling of about 220. It's usually at 220. 230 at the track on a warm day. This is with Mobil 1
