The Mocal plate constantly bleeds some oil to the cooler without fully opening, even when cold. This is why the cooler feels hot well before the oil gets up to full temp and, what you would assume to be, the opening at 180 degrees...This helps Avoid thermal shock and potential failure as a result, to either the engine or cooler. The temp is gradually ramped up at the cooler. As the oil comes up to temp and exceeds the 180 set point the Thermostat opens all the way and circulates at full volume. On the water temps, don't worry about that. This car runs surprisingly cool in that area. Generally 182 degrees at cruise, occasionally popping up to 200-210 in traffic. Many modern engines run much hotter than this....
