Goerend Trans
How hot does your Goerend Trans get? If im sitting at a light for a little bit the trans temp gauge will start to climb and get to 200 at that point ill shift to N and let it sit ive never had it go past 200 degrees. any one else have this happening?

What are you using for cooling?
|
The stock cooler
|
200 is about normal temp for sitting still. When you take off i bet it jumps right back down since the torque converter is circulating the fluid again.
Where is your sender for your gauge at? |
the hot line at the front of the truck befor it goes into the cooler.
|
Thats normal if you have a tight converter. Do you know what model converter you got? 900/400+-, 800/300+- or a 15 blade left cut.

I just got off the phone with Dave @ Goerend and asked him about gauge placement. Your seeing the hottest point in the transmission. I wouldn't worry about it unless it got over 230-240 degrees. If you get to 250 is when you will start hurting your transmission.

Thanks guys
As for the converter i have no idea. Its just the triple disk dave offers. |

Brett My temps have been very low since the new trans but I will finally tow something this weekend, my temps have been no more than 185* vs 210* with my old trans. Temps taken hot line. Just curious. |

Sense you seem to be in the know I have a 15 blade left cut I believe. He recommended this as it's used to tow in the Rockies, same torque multiplier 15 blade but cut at the ends vs his sled puller, 1/4 strip that is not cut. Does this run hotter or cooler?

The 15 blade left cut is a lil looser than his 15 blade left cut back cut. so yours should run cooler that the back cut in traffic conditions.
