Default At my house it's -10, I don't think 12 turbos would do it. I have 1. 4 hours and $20 is more like
it

Default you obviously haven't felt the heat off the 4.2
they recently paved the parking lot at my apartment complex, and in my dedicated spot, the pavement under the engine has a nice baked-in feel

Default Indeed. The temperature outside is -4 degrees, yet a "spirited" run
in my 4.2 resulted in oil temps over 220.

If I had a garage, it would be plenty warm from the residual heat from the V8 ))
