I ain't givin in 'till the mother****er is haulin' a$$......

Keep at it Denny. As you know these elephant engines are ornery b..strds. We let mine run for about 10 minutes while we filled and checked the tranny by running it through the gears and it never got above 180. Then backed it out of the driveway and drove down the block and back and temp stayed 180. Needless to say I was relieved because I always have nightmares about temp guages showing 250 and oil pressure going to zero!

 

[HemiDenny]

been there 528.......this one has never has been over 160*.....

 

[ibleedmoparts]

Oh man Denny! You'll get the gremlins out. Mopars just like to let ya know they rule the roost...kinda like a wife....;)
