I would agree with the 10 degree max unloaded. But load it down and keep your foot in it climbing a 7+% grade grossing in the 26000+# range and it will split a little further for a little bit. Also you have to factor in gears and weight of the truck. I am sure mine will be a little higher than a truck spinning 2000 or less on the highway. I have seen the split higher as the rpm increases. If I keep the rpm below 2000 then they are pretty close, but hell I am above 2000 at 55 and I can only stand it for a little bit.
I am camping right now and it blurped a 14 split for a second then came back together. But they both went up and down together coming over. I dont pay as much attention to them anymore as I used too unless the signals go off for max temps which I have at 235 for oil and 225 for coolant. Keep the coolant clean with a filter and you should be fine.
