David,
Not sure I interpreted your message correctly, but if you
can run for 15 minutes on the ground and only see 170-180F - but, I don't
think you have a problem. If I run above 5000 rpm my temps will hit those
ranges inside a minute or two. Now reduced power I can run longer, but the
temps still slowly climb.
On the other hand using a "Laser" gun remoted temperature
sensor is measuring the external temps - what are your cooling and oil temps
under those conditions?
