Are you fellas insinuating that size matters?

+1 on buying the correct depth pan...and I believe that cooler design and size has more to do with reducing heat than pan capacity.

No, my trans cooler dropped my temps by about 25-30 degrees. The pan was installed later, and dropped the temps that little bit more.

What did that pan cost you all said and done? Did it come with a new gasket?

My pan ran $275 and took 11 quarts to refill. Keep in mind that I removed the check valve from the system so I'm pretty sure both the aux cooler and radiator heat exchange probably drained out over night as I pulled the VB to do some work on it. I think the check valve probably kept the aux cooler from woRking as effciently as it currently does, and a pusher and puller e fan probably helps too.

My PML pan ran me $205 shipped. I bought it through a vendor on another forum, and he gave me a discount over the prive you see on the PML website.
