<VV> Oil temp

[MarK Durham]

Jim, yes, that is oil directly from the oil pump and before the cooler.
Those temps seem normal to me.
If you are concerned about the slightly higher temps, make sure your oil
cooler air passages are cleaned out and use a good full synthetic oil.
What were the cht temps?
