Prove it. "... allows the engine to run cooler... for a few minutes until operating temprature is reached.

Or... does it open earlier to allow cooling, sooner, on the rearmost cylinders? (Hint: Yes).

Math and science, only.

Lets get it on.

Installed low temp on my 98... in 2017... engine reaches same operating temperature... wait for it... same as OEM part. Yes, I have a Durametric... and an S oil cooler.

I'm comforted knowing the thermostat opens earlier... and takes just a few more minutes to reach "operating temperature".

Now.. if there is an aftermarket part that will reduce the [B]operating temperature[/B]... share. Emphasis on "operating temperature".

Please, no democrat math or science.
