Re: oil temp gauge

Tony - mine is in the hose run from the oil take off plate to the cooler, thus I always see the "hottest" oil temps (straight out of the pump and before the cooler) on the gauge, and I also know that the cooler will take 20C off that temp.
Only downside is that the temp gauge won't register until after the oil stat has opened - but that's how I know the oil is up to temp, see?
