Oil temps: 335 comparitive observation.

Search for ARC cool fins -- they use a heat conductive adhesive as well, and while simple and kinda "ghetto" seeming, it does help pull heat away.

I have 2-3 all over the underside of the oil pan and another couple on the dif. On the dyno, oil temps drop down faster between pulls with them as well.

In normal somewhat spirited driving in FL i typically see temps around 200* - 205* F tops, and logged around 207* F on Cipher. In prolonged drives in the heat -- 220* tops. I've never seen it go past that after the fins were added, whereas before it might creep ad high as 235* -- still not hot enough to really worry, but the fins are very cheap and do actually work as claimed.
