Aluminum pans I installed the B&M 24,000 cooler yesterday. Will be getting a converter this week. I did a search and some are using the aluminum pans. I was looking at the TCI pan that holds 2 quarts more than stock, and is finned for heat disapation. Is this a good mod for increased fluid cooling, and are there any clearance issues. My car is not lowered, and never will be. Thanks.

It is a good mod if you need additional cooling beyond the cooler you just added. I wouldn't spend the money on a pan, unless you need it. See how your temps are on a warm day.
Do you have a 160-Tstat? That and matching fan settings is a good for 10* or so in reducing tranny temps compared to stock, based upon my limited observations.

I just bought a fan control module that has high/low settings. My temps are good for the most part, but when it heats up this summer, I wanted that little bit of extra control. One of my coolers is mounted on the front of the AC condenser and when the fans kick on, you can watch the temps drop quite a bit.
