Mark,
You raise a good point.  I'm pretty confident in the oil side of the e= quation.  The digital readout is aircraft certified, and the specs are = +- 1/2 degree.  The sender is also aircraft type.  The water temp = is automotive.  Its anyone's guess how accurate it is.  The sensor= s aren't real expensive, so I may just order another one, and see what I get= .
The engine doesn't seem to be really hot when I land, which also makes me w= onder about the accuracy.
With that said, I also thin= k that my air flow through the oil cooler is a little on the low side.  = ;I don't want to rob any more form the coolant side, so another scoop seems = to be the answer.
