I have a '66 westfalia with a 1776 engine. The oil temp has been running at around 180-185, this being around town and driving to work. Just recently I stated working a much warmer area and the oil temp now creeps up to 190-200 degrees. Does anyone know the proper running temp and how high the temp can go before I must stop to cool it off. I run 20-50w oil with doghouse cooler, and oil pressure running at a constant 45 psi at speed, 15-20 psi at idle when warm. Thanks QueJ
