Curious as well. The 6.0 forum may be a better place to ask (or move the thread).

I don't think that the PCM would be tracking whether the delta is outside of a certain parameter. It should pop a check gauge for an ECT over temp, and I would think the wench for an EOT over temp but I'm not sure.

This is not that last definitive word, but I do not believe yhe truck will warn you about excessive delta Temps, you will need and auxiliary monitor.

Ford built it into the tail pipe.
vehicle will emit huge white cloud to inform you of temperature related failure.
the system is very effective and foolproof

Cheap way to watch all parameters on any engine.
