What motor are you running? Glasair I? The LNC2 has had about 3 oil cooler location discussions which tend to make worlds of difference as to how cool they run. My IO 360 has the oil cooler hanging forward of #2. For my plane oil temp sits at 83C in high cruise. I think this is the Vernithern (sp?) set point. In climb or low cruise I see 87C. While racing on the deck with the knobs all jammed in I see 95C. OAT seems to have very little affect from 70F-100F on oil temp (maybe 3-4 deg C). If you do attend the Airventure Cup, Steve and Bruce Hammer have Glasair I's with 360's and are a wellspring of data and insight as to how to go fast while cool (or be cool while going fast for that matter).
