What oil temp is normal in summer for the tiger?  and what is the  
highest it should run?

Probably between 180-200F or maybe a bit hotter during an extended climb is 
pretty typical.  If it gets to 220 F I would do something to reduce it or 
keep it from getting any higher.  But 245 F is the max redline oil temp.

>=20

I just installed a JPI 700 in a Cheetah with the small oil cooler.   At 80=20
OAT, the oil temp was around 220.   It was a new engine so I suspect it will=
 get=20
better.

On my Tiger, I normally see 190 for a max temp.  =20

Anything in the over 180 and under 200 range   (i.e., 180 < Oil Temp < 200 )=
=20
is acceptable.   If the oil temp gets much higher, keep it rich, and, if=20
necessary, reduce power.  =20

I strongly recommend the larger oil cooler for the Cheetah/Traveler.  =20
