The plates are never 100% closed for a reason. They only close to about 90% to prevent thermal shock by introducing cold oil kept in the lines/cooler to the engine

The plates are never 100% closed for a reason. They only close to about 90% to prevent thermal shock by introducing cold oil kept in the lines/cooler to the engine once the engine oil temps reach a certain temperature.
The only real way to prevent over-cooling is to block a portion of the airflow to the cooler.
