Engineer to engineer, you'll just have to take my word for it. I don't step in when I don't know what I'm talking about when it comes to bearing clearance ect, but this topic on oil temp is from real world experience. Plenty of people have seen the same thing.

I have been using m1 0-40 for about 4000 mls now
only thing I hate about it is eating a quart every 700 mls or if I was doing some canyon drivng then 500 mls other than no problems and get more respond with power, smooth.
