Hoping to get it this summer, we'll see if I get around to it.

Sounds like u don't really need one. You are in no way punishing the motor or the oil. If u track then I'd look I to it.

Yeah, that's why I'm not in a huge rush to get one. Just waiting for a good sale. With the 19 row and a thermostatic plate, I won't need to worry about oil temps when flogging it hard or about the oil not heating up enough.
