I wouldnt worry too much , because where your sender is might be cooler , hard to figure exactly where to mount one, because the temp will never be the same though out the engine, I am thinking the main reason your milage goes up is the oil pump itself takes quite a bit of power to spin , another reason low revs are good , but good info all around, i like the idea of wrapping the oil filter, seems logical and not too radical , otherwise the only way out is to install an oil cooler which on most cars now is tricky to run properly ,
