I put a oil temp gauge in the car and my oil temp gets around 280-290 when them motor is hot(215ish)
Any thoughts on this, can the oil handle it? had problems with the stock cooler but that thing only brought the temp down 10-15 degrees.

If that was my car I'd put a good oil cooler on it. And I'd for DAMN sure be running a synthetic oil. Mobil One at the very least, but I personally like Amsoil.

Sleeper I actually went to a big oil cooler for my car got one a while back and have been waiting to deal with it. Got to talking to my dad (petro research engineer) and we came to the conclusion that my oil was getting too hot which made us decide on the oil cooler. I would look at some of the ones that they use with nascar and such and work it into the program if you have room.
