Funny thing is with my set up (original with V10 in series) my temps actually went up about 10 degrees after adding the V10 cooler. It makes me think my original may be plugged. The tranny was replaced, with only about 10-15,000 miles on it, under warranty by the first owner and I wonder if the cooler plugged when it went out. I just cannot justify buying another cooler until I rule that out.

Enjoy yourself Lee. Sounds like fun. That is a beautiful area.

Thanks Steve. She looks so much better than that first day.

The Tru Cool would go inline with the stock on the 7.3 and I would do that for yours also if you can at all get them to both fit.

I am still here.

Thanks Steve, should be a good time, lots of Capt/RC

Jay,

Do you have an actual temp readout gauge, or are you using the stock dash approximate gauge. If you need to, you can borrow my scan gauge to see actual temp.

I have an actual gauge Lee. No factory tranny gauge. I think those came out in '02?

I will check that out Steve. Thanks

Good evening guys! You've been busy.

Just my luck everybody is checking out as I am checking in. Looks like we have determined the Tru-cool is the way to go.

Jay glad to hear your mom is getting better!

Lee have fun on your trip!
