<VV> Oil temp

[BobHelt at aol.com]

Mark,
I think that you will find that modern cars use a 50/50 mix of coolant and  
water with a 15psi pressure cap resulting in coolant temperatures running 
up to  250 degrees F. And with these coolant temps, the oil temp also runs up 
close to  these.

Most  dino oils work great in water pumpers as oil temps rarely could ever
get  above even  180-200, due to water cooling  but our air cooled  engines
get the oil temps there almost every drive.
