A lot depends on where your sensor is. It will register hotter when it comes off the torque converter. If it is installed in the output of the oil cooler it will be much cooler. Mine is in the wrong spot. It's tied into the cooler return line and I'm going to get it moved to where it gives me the actual temp coming off the transmission. Incidentally, I just added a "deep pan" to my tranny. Gives me somewhere between 6 to 8 quarts more of oil in the tranny. Did this because of another tranny failure which I believe was due entirely to shoddy workmanship on a previous rebuild.

Orv: where did you get the bigger oil pan and did it come with alonger pickup tube or was that extra.
