Joe,
The oil was lagging behind the coolant by 20 degrees or so, but that has
always been the case on the ground.  The real test will be when I get a
chance to fly it.  The oil always exceeded the coolant by 10-15 degrees on
the old setup.  I'll have to wait and see how the new setup performs.

Regards,
Steve

Steve,
         Way to go!!  Did you notice what the oil temp was doing with your
new scoop or was there not enough run time to see.  Thanks.  Keep up the
reports.
