Holy cow, that old thermostat may have been bad from the factory. My normal oil temp with the 160 Tstat lingenfelter installed was 185 to 190. With the new one, I can't get it to even hit 180 with...

Welp, looks like it was the thermostat. Lingenfelter installed a 160F one when they foisted gobs of horsepower on the engine. Must have locked up while in winter storage. Dealership wanted to charge...

Well, coolant flush didn't help. Back to square one. Lingenfelter installed a 160 degree Tstat during their upgrades, but the dealership didn't even make a note of it, they just said the Tstat is...
