Default t56 running hot

Im running a t56 from a 94 ss in my 89 iroc, everything works well but the transmission gets VERY hot. I'm running ATF that oem calls for, all bearings looked good in the tranny... any 1 have seggestions as to what it could be?

Mine runs about 180* on the hiway. Before anyone asks my car is a 6 speed conversion. Had the Temp sender in the auto before the swap and figured why not put it in the 6 speed.
