on manual trannies?

i put a trans temp gauge on mine awhile back...the gauge sweeps from 100degrees to 280degrees...and it would only just barely get to the 100degrees...no matter how much i beat on it.

my conclusion.. fluid temp is not a problem at all on manual transmissions. nothing like automatics.

no no, that is what the gauge is capable of reading.

i can barely get it the trans fluid temp to 100 degrees where the gauge even starts reading..

no need to be worried about tranny temps at all.

High-stall automatic setups are what you really gotta watch the trans temp with
