Message: [QUOTE="TyCorr, post: 220006, member: 1451"] Heck Ive seen 290°! Get stuck with a heavy load on a hill in soft ground. Half an hour of back n forth in 4wd with approximately 20k lbs of trailer. I changed mine so often I didnt care. Knowing that, and the trans didnt boil over, makes me wonder what temps I was seeing in my 94 250 when I boiled it over plowing? Had to be 400°... Just for contributions sake, I took my truck out last night and the night before. Ive got a 2k cc/sb psd with 4r and 4wd. Truck has php tunes,38r, 6" lift ,37s,and clean 4" exhaust(no ebp bs). In a stock tune from cold start driving three miles the trans hit 138°. I drove two more miles and there was no change. Test two I started the truck cold and drove the same path. However, once engine temps reached warm I put the truck into 140 hp tune. The egts were approximately 100° higher or around 700 °. Ths trans was apparently taking more abuse as it was 165°. Ambient air temp was 40° I didnt have anything to tow at the house so I couldnt do a test that way. If anybody would like ive got a 4k lb car on a 2k lb trailer I could do another run. I checked all my #'s with a redundant system. Analog gauges and a cts. Any values that were different were less than 5%. I attribute that to the cts getting real-time data whereas the gauges are having to heat a sensor and have slower speed signal chain. [/QUOTE]
