Ive got the t/s opening at 155F based on a strip of 0.001" shim stock trapped under the valve coming free. The trouble is I had to screw the disk down about 1/8" which extends the bellows 1/8". This means there is now only 1/4" of free movement before the top of the bellows hits the brass housing, down from an original 3/8" so the maximum flow area is reduced by about 1/3rd. I am going to run this in the short term but a new t/s is in her future.
