Alright, so here''s the deal. I''m going to flush out my transmission fluid in a couple k miles, and I was thinking about putting an aftermarket transmission pan on the vehicle that will increase cooling and fluid capacity.

I found the following, and I was wondering what you guys think, and if any of you are using it:

It''s made by B&M transmissions. The fins in the pan allow for better cooling, and since it''s made of aluminum, it will dissipate heat quicker than steel. It also increases the fluid capcity by a 2 or 3 quarts.

Oh.....one more thing. What kind of gasket does the stock transmission pan have ? Is it one of those disposable things you have to replace each time you drop the pan, or is it a rubber gasket that is reusable ? Just wondering.

Ok, I know as well as I''m sitting here that there has to be at least one member on this board who has done a transmission fluid change in their H3.

Am I the only one who has thought of putting a deeper aftermarket pan on their tranny ? LOL
