Although oil does splash onto the sensor in the middle of the temp gauge, I am starting to believe I am seeing more of a case temp than an oil temp.


I think I would disagree with that point Phil. Since the actual temp gauge (probe) is a thermometer positioned in the center of the gauge, in the center of a large rubber seal, it is not in contact with any metal, hence I believe the temp gauge (that Brent sells - the good one ) is showing the actual oil temp since only splashing oil is ever touching the probe itself.
Make sense?
