It sounds like Rusty
wants to keep his oil temps below 180 F. I,ve heard that oil temps should be
above 212 F so that water, from condensation, will boil out of the oil
during normal ops.
As I've recently learned
myself, the accepted maximum oil temp going into the engine is 210 F.
Temps above this point can harm the engine far more than a little
moisture.
The idea of a two inch pipe was
mentioned and then someone said that the pump is built with a 1-1/4
in. outlet. Is there an easy way to handle the change of head pressure and
still not get cavatation when changing the outlet size ?
I believe the pump comes with 1.25"
inlet and outlet, but also is supplied with sleeves to fit over the outlet
to increase the OD for larger hose sizes. It doesn't sound like they're
worried about the size change.
