Mine went
When thermostat is closed
motor ---> oil filter ---> thermostat ---> motor
When oil temp increased enough to open the thermostat
motor ---> oil filter ---> thermostat ---> oil cooler ---> motor
the thermostat doesn't open up until a certain degree, I can't remember off hand but it would just circulate back to the motor until it opened allowing full flow to the cooler. That way the oil could warm up some allowing the motor to warm up sooner while still continuously going through the oil filter.
My stock temp gauge doesn't really go much over the C on a normal day.
