The high temps have inspired me to get the oil cooler installed when they replace my short block.
Driving uphill over 4000 rpm's will spike my cars oil temp 40 degrees in 90 seconds. Driving behind a Prius uphill below 4000 rpm's on a hot day can still get my oil temp to 260 degrees, it just takes 10 minutes. So I am getting the oil cooler to match my life style.
