I'm cruisin' down the freeway the other day, and once I exit and drive about half a mile on the surface streets, my oil temp hits about 240 degrees. Regular driving around town will get it up to around 230. Ambient temps right now are at or above 110. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif) It only feels like hell...

Should I be thinking seriously about an external cooler? |
