Can't tell you what it is going to the cooler but my sump runs about 175* no load and about 220* under load. But thats with a 15 quart system.

I really need to learn how to type, or else learn to proof read. Should say "Just A Quick answer"
Big fingers, many bandages, little keys :D
on a hot day with truck camper.
200-220, 250 on long climb.
130 at aropund 15 deg f. I think this is to cool...
Depends on outside temperature. In the winter 15*F mine on the interstate runs about 150* at 75MPH. In the summer it runs about 185*F at 65MPH, but if I speed up to 75MPH it can get up to 200*F. Towing is always higher, because of the strain on the bearings while pulling a heavy load, I have seen it go up near 240*F. Run fast, higher temps, pull a heavy load, higher temps, cold outside, lower temps, hot outside higher temps. Its all relitive to ambient temps, and friction. Get a gauge and you can worry like the rest of us. No gauge? No worry! :D
Thanks guys, thats all I was looking for. I just wanted a rough idea of the temp so I can get the proper hose to make the cooler lines.
Yeah, I know people sell them, but I have everything I need to make up a set, just have to buy the right hose smile.gif
