Stubborn oil temps! (help)

[drew at scirocco.cs.uoguelph.ca (Drew MacPherson)]

Sounds pretty normal for those rpm's and ambient temps above 20 - 25C - 
I wouldn't worry about it.

Yesterday I super-flushed my cooling system(found lots of crap), backflushed the radiator(found it was clogged with a heavy-duty paper towel!), added a low temp thermostat and fan-switch, added prestone orange coolant(40/60), some new hoses, and put on a new expansion tank cap. Now on the highway the top of the coolant needle barely touches the LED, an improvement, but my oil temps are THE SAME. Changing the oil and filter didn't help either. It seems no matter what I do, my temps are always 110 and my cooling system doesn't affect the oil at all. Any ideas?
