I installed an inline temp. gauge just after the lovecraft filter/heater, before the fuel enters the IP. My highest temp reached was 110f! that took close to 30 minutes of driving to reach! My daily commute is under 12 minutes. I would say that I am almost always running on sub 90f oil (just a guess,temp gauge starts at 100f)
