I used to see 240F+ during long trips in the heat or even brief spirited driving. Now during extend spirited driving temps tend to stabilize around the 225F mark

thats called winning.

Thank you to everyone that helped me install the oil cooler & hood vents.

My oil temps ran about 200, but as was explained to me, that is probably because of the plastic undershroud that doesn't allow for good cooling. So.... the next thing is a Zspeed undershroud. I have approval to buy that, along with Madwi's exhaust.

So the next trip up north, we are going to leave here a few days early. Mainly so we can check out the Presidential library in Grand Rapids and have time to put the exhaust on and still have some time to relax...

Your oil temps are where they should be.

Thanks Spooler.

On the trip up, they'd get over 230 and take a long time to come down. Now when they climb, they come down a lot faster.

I should have done this years ago.....

I'm glad I had some expert help and advice around.

I told my fiancee, if it wasn't for the DRL connections, I could pull the bumper myself now... I think I have a couple of milk crates I can set it on while I disconnect the DRLs. I'm thinking a Super Hella horn is in my future...

Made it to Wamsutter Wyoming. Talk about a wide spot in the road.

It's a one horse town.

1400 miles from Madwi's place.

Seen in 9 semi's full of Tesla's. Everyone of them was black.

Had a mini van blow it's motor right in front of me today doing about 85. Had to drive thru a cloud of smoke and bouncing parts.

Dodging gators for 2 days.

Seen one blow about 6 cars ahead of me. It gave birth to a whole bunch of bouncing gators at once.

Seen a Ferrari 488 in Iowa.

Why do mini vans and Prius's do fly byes on the interstate when I'm doing 85?

Because the person driving it is mad because they have to drive a minivan instead of the sports car they really want.... I had a metricfuckton of those on my way home....
