the trans temp runs about 150-170 on my 2010 truck and I have seen trans temp as high as 220 in the burb in know these are not good numbers for any oil. Temp breaks down oil the fastest. Derale told me I just used the wrong cooler for the job so I am going with the pro opinion on this on I quess. Also thought about the shroud to pull fresh air in but not good for the gravel road I live on when it rain and turns to mud. I talked to them about the air shroud and they said it would not be needed. I will let you know the results.
