Ya know MrGoodwrench3 is correct...not sure why lockup became a concern, I'm more concerned with possible premature wear or damage due to fluid not getting it's optimal operation temp...

Huh?
You smart fellers with tuning software can adjust the temp at which the PCM allows lock up, but I think that the General knew what they were doing when they put those parameters in there

well i went back and searched around for what i thought i read, and i did see the mention of pcm not allowing lockup until 75* trans temp. so im under the impression that you may control the lockup thru coolant temps, but if the trans isnt up to temp lockup will not happen is all i was trying to say.
but all that is irrelevant since you said your not worried about lockup, just operating temps in general. guess i just got curious in the matter..
