Understand your discussion of viscosity increase and temp increase to aid in water mitigation and dilution, but can you say what is/was your main bearing clearance tolerance and what is it idealized for in terms of viscosity range, eg, watched you video with the gent about viscosity selection versus main bearing clearances.
Does anyone run oil heaters in the pan and oil tanks to raise the oil temp above 212 degrees F to boil off the blow-by/water? You could still have a low coolant temp for detonation resistance. I also wonder what the cylinder hone and ring pack were for that engine at +1300 HP? Gas ported rings, gapless? CNC vertical hone job with a honing head with 6/8/12 stones on the head?

I always herd of adding water in a mist, t get performance?
cant get fuel dilution if you get to drunk to operate the engine.... just saying 🍻
