Everyone with oil temp issues

Have they still not fixed the problem? Also, should my dad purchase the new oil cooler along with it or complain about it before he buys it? My other question is, If you were going to drive the car hard one day but not for an extended period of time, would the temp still shoot up regardless?

There is no "problem" to fix. A cooler is only necessary if your dad intends to track the car. After break-in there are few reported problems of High temps. This has all been blown WAY out of proportion.

My 370's (under 300 miles) oil temp is running around 120-130°F above ambient while driving very easy, like grandma on Sunday. Once I get past the 1200 mile break-in I'll post what my new numbers are.
