There is a test port on the top of the case, driver's side. That's where most guys put it.

if you put it there it will read about 15 to 20 degrees higher then the actual temp of the tranny i just drilled and tapped it in to the pan but i have a B&M deep pan so it was easier then the POS stamped steel stock pan

dont put it in the pressure port. buy the bung, take the pan off and take it to a muffler shop and they will prolly do it for next to nothing and it will only take a sec.
