I recently installed a Klaus Savier electronic ignition on my Velocity =
(Lycoming LIO-360-C1E6).  Previously (with the mags), my oil temperature =
always ran around 190 degrees.  Now, with the electronic ignition, it =
constantly runs at 220 degrees.  Cylinder head temps run around 340 =
degrees. =20

Is this normal?  Any solutions to bring the temps back down in the 190s? =
 I'm worried about where it will run during the summer months.  It is at =
220 when ambient temps are in the high 50s.

Thanks for any advice or input,

Jack
