The laughing can now commence but I have a stupid question. On those running big blocks, what should the
oil temperature be running? I took out my CSX for the first time after finally getting my
oil temp gauge replaced (it hasn't worked since the car was new) and after warming up a bit and letting the horses run so to speak, the
oil temperature reached 105. After getting off of it and cruising a bit slower, it settled in about 90. I am just wondering what the normal is. I am running a Roush 511. I can honestly say I now know why everyone hates the BFG's that come stock on these cars. After a couple of "accdental wheelspins" I experienced the tires getting very slippery (almost greasy) going around the next few corners. On the other hand, the sweet smell of burning rubber was the best part of my day.
Thanks
Ron
