Does anyone know the optimum operating temperature range of the 901, and/or the the temp. at which accelerated wear becomes an issue?

Has anyone run an oil temp gauge on their 901 transmission? I run a temp gauge in an adapter that I machined that replaces the speedo drive on my track car. I also ceramic coated the headers to assist with heat minimization near the gearbox. I'm not running a cooler. The most I've seen is 180 deg. on a 100 deg. day after a 30min. DE session. (I'm running about 228 HP with a 2.7 6 - RS spec. I'm also not pushing the car ten tenths however.) It did rise to about 205 after coming in the second 30min. session while sitting in the sun with no breeze. Ceramic coating the headers does affect the under side temp. |
