Before the oil cooler upgrade: 290 F oil temp in 3 laps, then had to back off
After the oil cooler upgrade: 220 F max oil temp, while running hard the entire weekend!

This set up kicks ass. I'll write it up when I get some time.

BTW, I'm running Shaeffer 5W/50.
Also looking forward to seeing this set up as I have some track days ahead of me and want to be sure to get that oil as cool as I can.
