I have yet to use my block off plate that i made, which is 2 pieces.. this past saturday, i drove it with temps mid 50s, on the highway, and my oil temp without the the block plate was about 165 at 80mph. You just gotta keep an eye on it, I'd definitely say anything less than 50 degrees day or night, the block off plate should go on. AND, I wouldn't recommend driving it hard until you can get your oil temp to at least 160+ degrees. __________________ Infiniti QX70 & Toyota Supra 3.0 Premium
