Cold air and fuel make more power.
Ok, before someone else states it---engines make more power at 200 to 220 degrees. But, that is a racing engine. What you need is to have enough temp to get the oil up to about 180 to 200 degrees so that all the water vapor is steamed out.  |
Isn't the oil typically 20 behind the coolant? So wouldn't you want a minimum of a 200 degree tstat?
