I'm  experiencing  
higher than comfortable oil temperatures (265-270 as  indicated by the  
gauge) when cruising at 65-70 mph.   It  normally operates at about  
260-265 after having been driven for  twenty to thirty minutes in the   
city.  


Stephan,
Oil temps you are getting are exactly in accord with those Chev engineers  
got as recorded in SAE 140C for the 1960 Corvair. They show oil temp ABOVE 
250 F  for road load speeds of 20 mph to over 80 mph with an ambient of 100 
F. What is  your ambient temp?
