I could've used one. Big question is how does it fit? The setup I put together for mine fit fine until I put the socks on the ends of the pumps....then it became a 45 minute wrestling match to get it in the tank lol. I eventually won.

Looks a bit low, but youve got miles of room between it and the engine

Just pulled the T56 out today to get ready for the 4L80E and pulled the wiring harness out to re-loom it in the Nylon? loom like comes on new cars. To top it off relized today that the motor mounts that have been in my car for the last 6+ years made the motor sit crooked in the car. Ugh.
