Brian:

Thanks for the info. I've had two different oil temp systems on my car and both of them have indicated that the oil rarely gets above 160 to 180 deg F unless I'm at the track. Meanwhile water temp will be as high as described previously. I've heard from other 351W owners that their oil temps run cooler than what they have experienced with other engines.

You're going to be evaporating water in the oil before you get to 212 deg F, right?

Cheers
