What types of average lows are you seeing for the morning and then the average for the day? I block mine off in OCT - all of it. The oil hits 190-200 on cool days and 185-190 on cold days. At night its 180 and its speed dependent. IF the cooler is unblocked I will have a temp of 160 and not more. Thats a touch too low. Personally block it all off and work from there. Make 2 plates or use tape(duct) as some do.
