16 minutes? I thought I was impatient.

Biggest cooler you can fit to answer your question. The more the better. I run the lokar flexible dipstick from a th400, not sure the length, but take a measurement and verify its long enough.

Mine came with the transmission. It was a stock one from a 2002 GMC two wheel drive truck. I had to bend it at the top just a tad to fit under the cowl.
