c6 normal operating temp
I was going to buy a trans temp guage for my 78 f250 with a c6. I was just wondering what is a good operating temperature for the trans and what temp would be overheating. Also the guage is electrical and i am mounting the sender in the oil pan and since the truck is a mud truck would water getting up that high short the sender out or hurt the gauge.

175* is considered normal.
Instead of the pan you could tie into a cooler feed line.
That will give you a reading as the fluid is exiting the convertor and is the hottest temperature.
Stay below 250* or you will smoke it quicker.
