Default New Tranny Issues

Hey guys, I have a 06 vmax with a transmission that was recently rebuilt 1500 miles ago with a hd2 and beast sun shell, nothing else. Well ever since then cruising down the road my tranny temps are getting around 190-195 driving 60-70 mph for hours on end. I already ordered my fittings and cooler for a 40K, but should I be looking for anything else? It never overheats, just seems to run pretty warm. I just want to make sure I'm not just putting a band aid on a potential problem. Thanks.

If it has no codes. You are ok. It can be a half stop up cooler. The torque is lock because you have no. 190 temp is no to bad.

Stock cooler will be gone next week for the 40k, but yeah it's a high mileage truck (176,000 miles) and was on original transmission so could be some issues in the lines and/or cooler I figured.
