Amsoil torque-drive

[SBISHOP370]

this pass weekend i installed my transgo JR. i put 11 qt of amsoil torque-drive ATF to fill her up. after getting her all back together i got the ATF hot to check the level. it was between the two hot marks. then took her for a small drive to my parents house about 30 miles both ways and the ATF was running about 175 to 200 there and back . the truck is a CC LB LBZ 4x4 07 classic with a ppe stander set on 3, 5" mbrp down pipe back (no kitty), and a ppe cut air box with a afe filter. is the trans running hot or is that normal. it was like 110 this weekend in Beaumont too. i have never seen the trans run this hot be for even towing my friends boat up the big bear. Also did i use the right ATF?

thanks alto from the FNG

someone anyone help me out I'm still driving the truck and the trans is still running about 175 to 190 today. did i get the right trans fluid? or is there something wrong with the transgo JR kit that I installed? i'm a new guy to the diesel world and love my truck but i dont want anything to go wrong with it..

On hot days here in SoCal my trans temp gets near 200 as well, thats just driving around town empty.

Not out of line at all.
