For example, yesterday I was over northern Michigan, OAT -24 C, and running LOP the CHT were in the range of 290 to 305, with the IAS of 210. It was cold with even the oil door shut the temps were in the 170 range. Is is safe to run the CHT that cool? Running ROP did warm them up about 10 to 15. Normal cruise CHT in the summer is about 360 or so, so I don't want to rework a lot, and what about winter baffles?
