To answer you question correctly you have to understand aircraft engines and automotive engines are totally different. First automotive engine are designed to operate at below 212-degree temperature and are not designed to operate at full rated horsepower rating. On the other hand aircraft piston engines operate up to a max temperature in most case of 245 degrees. The reason is the tolerance is larger for aircraft engines because of the heat expansion of metal parts. It’s important to know aircraft engines are designed to run at full power setting with no problems (don’t try this with an automotive engine). Aircraft and automotive engines are both 4-cycle and work on the same principles. Aircraft engine burn a much higher octane fuel to prevent vapor lock and denotation (knocking), which will severely damage your engine. The cooling part is for the oil. In aircraft the abound of fuel and oil is used to control temperature and lubrication. Some engine will have an oil cooler install to
