Actually no i did not. Once i got the oil temp gauge on the truck the temps only go about 5-10* above coolant temp while sitting in traffic. Normally they run 180* which is cooler than the coolant temp

From the port above the oil filter, the same spot that feeds the turbo. Is there a better spot?


Also i noticed it takes awhile, probably 10-20min for it to reach 180*

Indeed . I'm interested to see how you like the swap. I know you'll like the increased traction part. But id like to go to 3.90's or so. Good luck with the install
