Water guy is correct. The tranny cooler will have a lot less surface area than the engine's x-changer. Most engines I have seen have a 160 degree thormostat for raw water cooled and 170 degree thermostats for fresh water cooled. With the less surface area on the tranny cooler you will see less heat into the cooling water than what you get from the engine.
