just to update this info. it appears that 300 is not the right range. the one day i got to run my engine, the oil temp appeared fine (medium to medium-high since my gauge does not have numbers) for the whole trip, but Jake felt that when dumping the oil and feeling it that it was at 230 or better. not exactly scientific, but the man has done it a few times.
i spoke with egauges.com and although not difinitive, they felt that 250 was the right sender to be using. seeing as i broke off the tip of the sender during install this weekend and i have to replace it anyway now, i am going to try the 250 and do some kind of test to gauge (pun intended) how calibrated my 911 gauge is with that sender.
i don't know how the gauge works, but i am assuming it looks for a signal from nothing to high and the needle will move appropriately. so dropping to a 250 degree sender from a 300, should move my redline down to a cooler temp (hopefully around 220). anyone know how this works?
