Hello group ,this is somewhat Zenith related at least to the Cont.0-200 powered people.When flying my 0200 Sonerai in this Texas heat my oil temps climb to the red line of 220 degrees and seems to stay there . Now my Tripacer with the 0320 Lyc. is red lined at 245 degrees .Sometimes I fly the Tripacer at 230 degrees 15 short of the red line .Both engines being built similar using the same type and weight of oil should I be concerned with the 0-200 say heating to slightly above the red line temp ,remember I am using the engine in an experimental .

This just my opinion.....
I don't like to see oil temps below 210 and prefer mine to be about 230-235 on climb out and drop to 220 or so during cruise. The formulation of premium oil now a days work better at elevated temps. I try not to even take off till I see 150 oil temps. There are several RV guys around here who love to brag that their oil temps run under 180,,, Geez the stuff is not even thinned out properly yet at temps that low. Your mileage may vary....
