Oil Temperature

[Davidbr_48]

The oil temperature in my Mk IV with Coyote engine stabilizes at about 220 degrees when the engine is fully warmed up and I'm cruising down the highway at about 75 mph. I live in Arizona, and wonder whether I should add an oil radiator to get the temperature down. The water temp stabilizes at about 180 degrees. Do I need an oil radiator?

I have always wanted to keep my oil temperature between 180* and 210*, in the summer around here I quite often see 220* oil temps. I think that if you installed an oil cooler you would bring the temps down too far which is not good.

No you don't need an oil cooler, 220* oil temp is just fine.

Thanks for your responses. Sounds like I am good to go!
