Default GOT THE TRUCK BACK!!!!!

Thought I'd inform you guys I finally got the truck back, rebuilt tranny with an upgraded torque converter and tranny cooler, with warranty as long as I own the truck!!!!! I'm so happy I went out last night and was cruisin around with the girl and her uncle, when some guy in a honda came up besides me and kept pushing in the clutch and revving the engine, it was sooo annoying that I put my edge on stage 4 and punched it, lets just say he got a mouthful....lol his window was down!!! I love my new ctd and I look forward to posting much on here!

I got a few questions, what should the EGT's be staying around when cruising around town? My EGT's have been sittin from 500-900, and its been 100+ degrees outside also.and if I get an exhaust how well will that drop my EGT's? thanks guys

cruise on, 70mph, flat I'll see 6-700. around town it depends on how I'm flogging the throttle. 5-900 depending on throttle sounds right.

dropping the stock muffler will lower EGT's around 100-150F

ok sound like mine is operating about right, what should the tranny temp be at? I had the transmission shop put a high performance one on there and the temp stays around 140-166
