Grover,

You still haven't said where you are measuring the oil temp. As PZL memo
states, you
should be measuring it at point 7.1, just before the oil return to the
engine.  I modified my
plenum by splitting it in two and sealing the base of the cylinders. Now,
in Florida's heat,
I can take of and climb to 5000 ft with CHT's remaining below 390 F. and
oil temps hovering
between 215 and 220 F. Attached is a PZL bulletin of what Brian is saying.
