I think he ought to be looking at the sprocket(s) not visible in the picture that are turning those camshaft sprockets. 💡

Well thank you very much @OVERKILL. 👍🏻 I did not realize or think about the relief valve on the oil pump. I sincerely appreciate that. If I experience anything like 58psi-60psi during any normal driving, I will consider dropping back a bit to 5W-30 or 0W-30 in the HPL Supercar flavor. Thank...

Curious @OVERKILL ,,, do you know what the oil pressure was when you first poured in your HPL 0W-20 Supercar oil? The reason I asked is because I wonder if there exists an initial difference in the HPL Supercar due to base virgin viscosity. I did not like oil pressure below 35psi in my 5.7...

How to cool a ZF 8HP75 transmission’s temperature more quickly. A sewer fan and a yard blower.😅 Side-to-side vehicle level checked with a 2-feet bubble level. Jacking up the truck 14 1/2” in order to obtain a level transmission. This leveling procedure is asinine not because of the...

Hello again @slo town and @QwikKota! I happened to take a few hours today and re-check my B&M +4 quart transmission pan gasket for any leaks. None found. That said, I also jacked the azz-end of the RAM 1500 up in the air again to check fluid level again (in the 86-122 degree F fluid...

Gggh My RAM used to be that way as well,,, then one day it wasn’t. At least you know that you have a modification part that works if you RAM’s transmission fluid temperature starts climbing during normal operation. 😉👍🏻

Greetings @stenerson! Believe it or not, the B&M +4 quart transmission pan is neither painted nor powder coated. It is black anodized cast aluminum. Should outlive me and my HPL ATF Green transmission fluid. 🤣 The gasket is indeed a type of cork gasket but a bit different than the cork...

Performance Test & Check After driving 50+ miles one way to work (80 mph), the highest transmission temperature I could create was 154 deg F. (ambient air temperature through my radiator and transmission cooler was 60 deg F over multiple trips to work). I am quite pleased.

Getting to the OEM Transmission Heater is actually the hard part of this modification. Installing the actual bypass valve assembly is pretty easy (save snap ring removal). If a 4WD RAM 1500 like mine, disconnection of the front driveshaft at the differential joint is necessary. Four 15mm...
