So you will run at 150f?, horrible idea. Every car today runs at 210f and goes 8k miles or more prior to needing oil and they last over 200k let's see how long your engine last. Call blykins or Keith craft. You do want to flash off the moisture / condensate in the oil I would hope. Mine came with 180f and it was brand new when I got it.
