[T3] re oil temp sender


hello.
       i have running on a brass t on top of my oil cooler an oil temp
sending unit and a duel vdo pressure sender for idiot light and actual
pressure.
       my oil temp on a long trip at 90 mph = 80c (head temp 350 slightly
higher up hill).
       i think my deap sump contributes to my nice low oil temp i am
thinking of putting a coat on it for the winter actually so i dont run to
cold and adjusting my air flaps to the tighter side so i get a nice quick
warm up!
       my oil pressure is good at speed but i must admit the gauge reads
only 8 psi at idle but at the oil cooler im not too worried as its at its
highest point there and all downhill after that so i beleive this to be the
best place as it gives a slight advantage over the t1 location as it is
closer to the bearings where the oil is needed .

neil verdon 66 sqr on irs pan
best among equals rise to the top.
