I’d say no. The
is no metal in there that is going to be damaged by 350F. 350C would be
another matter.

As I understand
it, the whole issue with keeping the oil temp below 210 is to keep from melting
the bearings. While most of this oil cooling is from oil being sprayed on
the inside of the rotor, isn't there also a layer of oil constantly being pumped
past the bearings themselves? This must help cool them some directly as
well.
350 still sounds
kinda high. Maybe I can take the bad rotor, and put it in the oven
(when my wife isn't home of course).
BTW, I would like
to apologize to those of you who are now beating your heads against the keyboard
screaming "just change the damn bearings"
:-)

waiting for those oil sample results)
