Oil temp soars under load



Hot day here in NY (88f) with A/C on and driving in a spirited but sane
manner, coolant temp goes high, but at least one line below max.  Oil temp
redlines. Wish I had an oil pressure gauge in this car (86 4KCSQ).

How normal is this? Comes down significantly at idle or with a/c switched
off. The oil is freshly changed Castrol 20/50. Mobil1 filter.

Thanks for any comments or BTDT,

Jeff
