I have a classic with an 80hp.
After several years of experimentation I have settled upon a cowl flap/exit air
restrictor and, most important, a Laminova water-oil heat exchanger.
The cowl flap keeps the coolant temperature under control (210-220F) and the
heat
exchanger keeps the temps in lockstep in cruise. In climb, the oil temp
stabilizes
at 15-20degF over coolant temp. (I attribute this to heat load in the
gearbox.)
If you Choose the Laminova, get the largest of the 3 standard sizes. It will
not
overcool.
(I started with the smallest, moved to the medium and had to install a coolant
restrictor to force more coolant through the heat exchange section)
They are not returnable so go for the big one, its not a great deal lerger or
more
expensive.
In descent temps go to 170-180F. Cowl flapp closed.
It has been a lot of work, but I love my Laminova. I am in Vermont currently,
with surface temperatures in the 20-25F range. (-5C)
Warmup is a bit quicker, too.
