In winter months, I needed to block my oil cooler off with cardboard to prevent it from overcooling. Even with a thermostat it was helping too much. Even driving on the interstate, when it was -15f here, I would need to leave the car at 6kRPM to get over 150f on the oil temp. Idling and not moving allowed the oil to heat up plenty, though
