Thats why it read at 150, thats the temp after it returns from the cooler.
Yes. If that return fluid gets up to 190 to 200 it time to back off a little

A gauge anywhere is better than no gauge at all. If pan temp is 150, then that's what the transmission is picking up too which is good.

Just ditch the sideways filter mount and replace it with a regular 'ol SB/BB filter mount.
