Trans Temp

Installed a new pillar pod in my 04 6.0. Does any one know what trans temps that I should be seeing? Town, Highway, and Towing?

There is a thermostat in the trans that will try to control pan and pressure port temps to about 165°F. Your temps should be around that, but will take quite a few miles to get there if it's a cold day. Towing temps should be less than 200°F.

If you are reading your temps in a cooler line, disregard what I said.
