Trans cooler

[Righteyeblind]

So does a built tranny tend to run hotter than a stock one? ive got a stage 4 by mike and ive gotten it pretty toasty going over the mountains here on i70 in colorado this week pulling a heavy load.

Yes higher pressures

Is the OBD-II and the cluster reading from the same sensor?

Dash trans temp calculates on pressure whereas a tapped pan/aftermarket gauge is an actual thermometer if you will

They read from the same place; pressure switch manifold heat sensor. This sensor will be reading some heat sink as it is bolted to the valve body. With an aftermarket sensor reading fluid temp from the pan your temps will read lower.

Thanks for clarifying Mike.
