Anyone using one?

 

I just put a B&M deep trans pan in mine.It holds an extra 3 quarts,and it has a drain plug.Remember,90% of all trans failures are due to excessive heat.It sits lower than my 3in exhaust.

 

Is it so low you have to be extra careful on the slightest bumps?

 

Unless you plan on doin some off-road racing,if not,I wouldn't worry about it.

 

I too just had a B&M 3Qt. deeper transmission pan, coupled with a B&M 24K cooler installed on my 2001 Z28 (stock height). In my case the pan DOES NOT hang down as far as my 3" Y pipe, or as low as my SLP SFC, however clearance maybe an issue with this pan if your car is lowered.

I totally agree with 5H9D0W, heat is the big killer of transmissions. After the above install, my transmission was filled with 8 Qts. of fluid not having a converter drain.

I have no problems with bottoming out going over dips or speed bumps.

Hope this helps you out in some way.
