Not to mention that cooling will be quicker due to greater temp differential between oil and air than between oil and radiator coolant.

The flip side is that cruising on the highway on a 30* morning will have your oil running way too cool. Very glad to see it's oil/water. Z06, ZR1, S2000, they all use/used it. It's good stuff. Creates a lot more stable environment re: oil temps.
