what oils are you using with your TT setups

Even with my small oil cooler I rarely see operating temps above 208/210. This time of year in Florida I’ll be lucky to have my oil temp within operating “spec” temps, which I believe starts at 180?? These are not track temps. This is just driving normally around town, getting on it here and there, stop and go traffic etc.

Remember you can add about 10* to 20* based on where the oil temp is taken. My temp here in the winter can get fairly cool...in the 50s and 40s. When cruising on the highway my temp gauge will read 160. You may need to block part of your oil cooler off to get temps to stay up. Under normal conditions mine is always about 200 or 210.

I’ve been thinking about fabricating a block off I can slide in for the cooler months. My intercooler is already in front of my oil cooler so it doesn’t have direct exposure. Just a b**** to access lol
