I have a feeling this is actually heating the oil instead when a separate cooler is installed. I took it off to see if I could just put a return on it and not use that coolant thing, but there needs to be a new threaded fitting made to be able to connect the Setrab directly to the engine. Anyone know if these are available?
I turned the heater to full blast and that helped get some heat off the engine, but in Florida even with the windows down, that is not comfortable. Any ideas on how to have the heat set on max, and get that air directed outside the car instead?

I think you're right about the 13/14 collar. I tracked at Sebring last weekend (and it was HOT). I did 3 30 minutes sessions and only had to lay off towards the last 5-7 minutes of each one. I'm not running an oil cooler at all and have a 2010. I did stay around 240-250 for most of it... I'm gonna grab a 25 row soon.
