I got 2019 Classic 5.7
Did anyone notice that oil temperature is actually lower then coolant temperature for first 10-15 minutes in the colder weather. For example, I'll have 60*F coolant and 40*F oil, the only explanation I can come up with is that my Hemi has some king of heat exchanger ( kind of like 3.6 Pentastar has built in exhaust manifolds in the head) which will keep coolant at higher temp initially, until normal operating temp has been achieved.
Anybody know the actual reason why
