Update on shroud: It didn't work as well as I hoped. In the afternoon with ambient temps in the low 60's, I still saw oil temps in the 240* range.
At redline, my oil pressure was in the 50's. Since my last event I switched from Mobil 1 1030 to Motul 8100 5w40. I think the gap between the cooler and condenser may be causing a problem with the flow of air through the cooler even with my beautiful shroud. So, over the winter I'll remount the cooler so it backs up the the condenser with a 1/4" gap and reshroud it for good measure. Despite somebody's "brilliant" suggestion, the dang foam piece behind the bumper did not seem to make any difference. |

I'd like to know if the oil flow could actually increase when the oil is hot and therefore at a lower viscosity. But then, what is the cutoff point of high temp vs low pressure? When does it become detrimental? |

The oil cooler gave me peace of mind on 100+ degree days at the track.

I'm with Zdan, why do you believe 50psi at redline and 240 oil temps are a problem to be solved?

So @ZDan and @terboboost, what does your pressure run at 260*? And what is your cut off point for pressure and temp? I've read where syn oil doesn't break down like dino oil does but it does thin out at high temperatures. What minimum pressure are you guys comfortable with at redline? 30-35 psi? |
