The charts I have read suggest that I'll only get 20k - 40k out of the transmission at these temps. What is the best way to get them down?
Next service switch to synthetic fluid as you should find something compatible. And by all means add the largest stacked plate auxiliary cooler you can.
Can you tell if the torque converter is locked up at those speeds and temperature?

Some of these suggestions are easier said than done. The fan itself couldn't be just an electric fan, must be 12v and have a thermostat to cut on. Also should be durable (auto grade) for rain/weather, etc. I'd suggest just adding the cooler first to open venting and then go from there if needed.

All of the temp charts on the internet show fluid breakdown beginning by 220F or so and the life getting very short above that.
I would get a LARGE transmission cooler with a built in fan that operates on a thermostatic switch, also built into it. There are a number on the market.
What brand gauge is it? where is the temp sensor mounted? Do you have a deep aluminum pan installed to add additional fluid quantity to the transmission so it will run cooler, plus the cooling the aluminum pan offers.
