    If you want to measure temperature you have to put in a gauge .

    Trying to use a temp gun picks up to much heat from your radiator

    okay, do you think the unlevel installation of the trans cooler will be detrimental or is it
    okay?

    Only in the way it looks to you

    Although it does not hurt to get another bolt or cable ties for more support it would make a mess if that one bolt came loose.
