What is the operational temperature range for the 4L60E, anyone know? I'm sent an email out to the General, but I doubt I'll be getting the response I'm looking for.
I have one in my Envoy, with a total fill capacity of 11.8 quarts - which I think is a joke and I'm getting a deeper pan for increased fluid capacity. The ambient temperatures are just too high here, and at noon time when it's over 120 F, my ATF temperatures climb up to 217 F on the highway. In stop and go it gets up to 223 F, and with these temperatures, I'll be needing a new transmission soon if I don't do anything. I'm running Kendall Dexron-VI with LubeGard Red, and will be ditching to POS factory cooler (in the radiator) soon for something better.
