you're making, expecially considering oil temps are almost double what they=

th temps reflect the increase. Something's not adding up here for me, I've=
never seen this IME.
I would think that the coolant temps would eventually be affected by sky
high oil temps.. but maybe the capacity of the cooling system is just so
much higher than that of the oil system that this is not the case..
Then again.. if that was true, how come the cooling system doesn't help
to keep the oil temps lower.. since the coolant stays fairly cool (and
certainly below 150c!)
