Default B&M deep pan on a TH350?

Anyone have a undercar picture of a B&M deep trans pan on a TH350. Trying to figure out if it will be too low or not. I found a picture of a deep pan on a A4 but not the 350. Thanks

Not sure, but I think mine is a B&M and its no problem. I can try to get a phonecam pic in a while. My front is lowered about 1"-1.5" and I have no issues at all.

thanks, i don't think it will be too low, but i would just like a pic to see, because I purchased the pan and I dont want to open it up in case I have to return it. I have not put the th350 in the car yet so I can't really hold it up there to see

Don,t lower the car too much or the first thing that hits is going to be your tranny pan.........and thats not a good thing.
With a lowered car speed bumps will be a no no, drive around them or go back.

I had a B&M cast deep tranny pan for the 60E but after I pulled the pan one day to mock it up I found I could not use it. It was lower than my header collectors by a good amount and they have scrapes on them. So it just sat till I sold the core of my 60E (damn thing broke for the last time) and threw it in with it.

TH400 now with deep pan and its much better as far as ground clearance is concerned. Of course lots of weight reduction and Eibach drag launch springs help get the car up in the air.

It was a tad lower than the exhaust on my Nova, a pic from the webshots page:

Is this your daily driver? Depending upon how much use your car see's will depend how it affects you. I have a pro kit on mine and had a deep pan on my th350 before it took a crap and I never had any issues. My DSL/TA mount catches the brunt of everything on my car.

It is not my daily driver, it gets driven once or twice a week. I have mid length MAC headers with true duals, and right now the duals right around the driveshaft area is the lowest point that drags. The car is not lowered, and don't plan to. Thanks
