I liked the oil temperature gauge and high viscosity 60weight at the high 240 degree Farenhite information - takes a long time to get to temp and then takes a long time to get the temp down.

On my 235 with OEM pennzoil 5W30 it seems it takes 10 miles at normal driving rpm to get into the 90's Celsius, and then after a few high rpm runs the temps seems to stay around 111 Celsius, even slowing down when I think I'm getting cool air over the radiators and heat exchangers, the temps stay at 111-113 Celsius. All this regardless of ambient temps.
