You obviously have a trans issue based on your several threads, posts, comments.

I'm taking it that the OP wants to know how hot the fluid is going into the cooler, plus already has one in the pan. I should try it. I have two coolers in series, one with a fan one without. Have a sensor in the pan. My EFI can accept PLENTY of extra sensors, just gotta wire them up.

So what info is gained by knowing the temp in the line?

Seabass, talk to Marco Abruzzi, he knows as does Bob Nichols.

Here are my thoughts.

It doesnt matter what location you pick as long as you have a baseline or comparison.

I would think the pan is as good as anywhere and likely the least risk area for a major problem that could potentially cause a leak.

If in the pan and you baseline it agaist performance. You can 1. see if you left at the same temp vs performance. 2. If you left at the same and something is changing causing excess heat generation during a run vs other run data.

I see it as irrelevant to the location.

If the trans gains 30* during a run, and you see it all of a sudden gain 40-50* I would be concerned if over the last 50runs it was consistently only 30*. if you leaving at all different temps then that too is a problem....but all relative to that setup/trans/fluid.

Find what is normal, try to keep it the same and then monitor for change.

Mine gains maybe 2* in a pass, full pass, 1/4 mile. Heat soak going back to my pit spot is a different story!

same here, 1-2 degrees on a 1/4 mile pass.

Or, he wants to know how much heat is generated by the converter....

"Dunning-Kruger Effect"
-a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge.

Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue.

The guy is wanting to try something so let him do it!!! No need to bash him because he is trying something on his car with his money. Trying things is how you learn and if you never tried things then there is no way to know your way is the best or fastest only that you assume so.
