JKC, There is a tendency for people to think that cooler is somewhat better but as others here have said, the engine needs to operate at a certain temperature to be most efficient. I would think most engines in that era would run from about 160 up to about 200. I think more towards the 190-200 mark myself. Without trying to sound technical, thermodynamic principles will prove the engine is more efficient the hotter it can run (to a point of course). Hope this helps! Tommy
