In Reply To Have you actually measured oil temps under race... posted by RSR on November 21, 2002 at 03:15 PM

Message : conditions with that setup? What did you find? Where in the system are you measuring the temps?
Although not scientific, it can be proven that it is working.
One day, after driving home from work (when I **HAD** a job), I placed my hand on my oil cooler. It wasn't even warm. Infact, for a 95+ degree day, it felt cooler then the rest of the car.
One day, after driving on a race track 'heavy footin' it pretty good, I made the same test. The cooler was significantly warm. Not near as hot as the radiator, but something I wouldn't want to cuddle with either.
