in regards to looking for tranny pan . summit sells many brand name ones . ive tried most with no luck so i went the extra cost for aluminum pan.the one ive bought where derale brand they have tubes in bottom of pan that actually dropped the temp in my tranny by 28 degrees as i do have a temp gauge for temp in tranny no leaks and a fair price at $ 62.88 part # der-14100 it also holds one qt extra . the cheap chrome pans sell for $ 28.00to $35.00 range for a $30.00 more trouble solved and other potential troubles with heat in tranny solved or at least it will help . if you find the need to use chrome get a transdapt brand and use a rubber not cork gaskets. scuff the surface where the gasket will contact in the pan .be very careful not to over tighten and in some cases a thin coat of silicone. but i dont recommend it . if it happens to oooze to the inside and gum up the tranny youll have troubles good luck bob in ny
Before you call Jegs and Summit check out Rjay's. They carry all the same stuff and they will match or beat the prices I am told....

If you want to go with chrome go with the b&m chrome pan, it hold an extra qt. and is more heavy duty than some of the other cheap pans...I have had one for about 8 years ..no leak so far....Its $45.99 at jegs part number 130-30289 1-800-345-4545 or jegs.com.... Summit should have it too...Good luck
we sell quality aluminum pans and have had no problems. We can suply steel chrome, but agree with others that have posted in that they generally begin to leak sooner or later. Reason being that the steel units don't despence the heat as well as aluminum so they are constantly expanding and contracting. That means continued retighten of the pan bolts which soon leads to a damaged gasket.

I remember years ago that it was said not to use a pan with the tubes because it causes condensation buildup in the trans. Not sure if this is true but I thinkit does require the pan to hang down a little further into harms way maybe.

9 times out of 10 the pan gasket is not leaking. cars set and the converter drains back over filling the pan. this causes them to leak around the filler tube or kick down. fluid level is suppose to be below pan gasket. type of pan has little to do with it.

Street and Performance sell genuine GM pans chromed. The aluminum looks good, but my friend had a rock fly up and bust a hole in his aluminum 350 pan when we were on a road trip....stopped him dead in his tracks. We had to find a used GM steel pan and change it on the road.
Hey mark........it may help to put "center punch" marks along the surface on the trans to keep the gasket from pushing out when tightened.......also.....never been a fan of using silicone where ever there is hot oil substances......"grey"sealer seems to work best......also....I like polished aluminum pans..{ finned} ....tends to dissipate heat better.......chrome may look great....but tends to hold the heat in .
Shine, how do you stop the pan from overfilling from the torque convertor back draining? I have the same problem. My trans is definately not overfilled.......CR
I thought that I knew it all , but..
