I bought a pan heater to thin the oil before start-up and we'll see how it goes from there.

It is a REAL pain to get the pan off in car. Yesterday they got some oil temp indicating and the press was 70 at idle but would go past 100 at 2k rpm. I think I'll consider dropping the pan if at normal oil temp the pressure is still out of sight.
