The temp gauge only fluctuated from the low (bottom of the scale is 140) to around 145. I'd expect it to show warmer than that after 10 minutes of street driving.

If you're running an oil cooler, 10 minutes isn't nearly long enough. My oil runs so cool that it practically never budges off the minimum reading (140F?) unless i'm driving really hard. I finally bypassed the oil cooler because I figured the oil was rarely getting hot enough to off-gas the moisture that naturally builds up in the oil.
