Gary,
Yes...it will fit and you'll need to grind the plate from the Governor
Pressure Solenoid as well. The filter extension is required to stick
the filter farther into the fluid...you'll need three longer bolts as
well for the installation (the newer kits come with them but the older
ones do not). Also...if you received an older kit...you'll need 14
longer bolts (1") to properly secure the pan to the transmission (and
2.5 gallons of ATF). Royal Purple works very well in the automatics.

Subject: DML: Transmission Pan
I'm thinking about installing my deep transmission pan this weekend, and
I
was wondering if anyone out there had some tips on installing one.
Also,
what filter & fluid would be the best? I'm leaning twords the royal
purple
fluid, but if anyone has anything better I would like to know.
PS. What the heck is that thingie for the oil filter that came with the
trans pan? Do I need it?
