    Deep transmission pan install pics

    We added this to berrys car along with the level 2 kit and a engine cooling kit, which is a piece of cake with the transmission out.

    I understand!! The pan is really heavy duty and adds strength to the tranny case. The additional 2-3 qts. didn't hurt either. I think it took 14 qts to fill the system. We used Amsoil ATF. I like because it doesn't start to oxidize until 420 F instead of 260 F with petroleum based ATF.

    Glad to hear it. It sure is great when things go right. B&M has been around a long time.

    Dennis - That trans pan looks great. The additonal fluid is a definite plus. Is the green wire hooked up to a temp gauge and is there any problem with road clearence? Thanks.

    Below 125? Isn't that too cold? Fluids have a proper operating temperature range. I thought for ATF, it was between 160-200 degrees, with nominal temperature being 180 degrees?

    I have run Amsoil products since 1985. The following is the reason I had Dennis put the Amsoil ATF in my car.

    Great looking install pics!

    I have a B&M pan which I didn't install yet due to time. A few questions though...
    1. Could you give details on those braided hoses & fittings?
    2. There wasn't a gasket included with my pan, should I replace the original gasket?
    3. Is there any kind of longer pickup or filter needed?

    You use your OEM gaskett The braided hoses and and fittings are part of the trans cooler kit I sell, the stock OEM filter is fine
