Default zzp aluminum trans pan

Picked up a zzp trans pan. Do I need to install a magnet on the pan? Anything else I need.

I'm pretty sure aluminum isn't magnetic so you have to improvise or use an external filter in conjunction with the factory filter

I think it comes with a magnetic drain plug. You could place a magnet directly on the filter too.

FYI there's actually a GM bullentine that says our cars should have two magnets. One on the stock location on the trans pan, and one on the filter...give me a minute and I'll post the bulliten here. Got it on my phone

To me it reads more like "replace original square magnet with updated one."
