Do you not use the rear sump to transmission brace?

I'm really keen to know what your results are.
The way I understand oil temp design is that engineers aim for 110 degrees cel. to burn off all moisture as engine oil is hygroscopic, moisture in oil becomes acidic.
This is an even bigger issue with alcohol/ethanol fuels like I run.
