Ok so I'm thinking, if it's better to keep the oil at a certain operating temperature (which really does make sense), how about a thermostatically controlled oil bypass from the oil cooler for those older engines that don't have the engine coolant oil warmer? Similar to an engine coolant thermostat that controls the flow of coolant going to the heat exchanger. It's probably relatively easy to do it home made but does that sort of system actually exist off the shelf?
