i have a 2002 3500 24v ho with 6 speed stock except edge juice with attitude. im getting reading of the egts being anywhere from normal all the way up to over 1300 degrees should the egts be running that hot? i do not have the hot unlock cause i get the same hp and tq without as i do with and all it does is raise defueling point so engine can spin faster dont really see the sense in it. either way my truck truck tops at 100mph with the 3.55 gear and with the egts getting that hot do i run the risk of melting,blowing or cracking parts. i already have several problems with the truck not running right

Temps sound about right. I use to hit 1350 with the same setup in my 01.
