Don't exist and a larger deeper sump, unless baffled, may also increase the risk of fluid frothing and the fluid sloshes around with subsequent trans damage. Finned for extra cooling is good and in some cases deeper pans can take the fluid away from moving parts that create frothing but that isn't a BTR issue and having the filter sitting closer to the trans sump acts like a baffle reducing frothing.

Looks good; do the magnets stick on the alloy?

No they don't, but the Drain Bung is magnetised ...
This pan improves the structural ridgity of the BTR case especially preventing the valve body from twisting and consequently losing the abilty to apply oil pressure to the solenoids, which in turn causes most of the catastrophies in these 4 speed's.. The shaft's break but not from torque as you would believe in most instances, it is from lack of oil supply to the galleries and of course the shaft twists/seize's or the sun gears strip their teeth :/ I bought this from Dion for mine last year it is brand new, i believe it is the same that is used in CLINIC a 9.4 sec full weight BA with 4spd auto... I have a T400 and don't require it anymore  PM me an offer if interested .. Last edited by Road Games; 11-05-2014 at 12:44 PM.

Thanks for the replys, have been racing and got the auto so hot it wouldnt select gears, cost me the overall win for the night, DNFed last heat. All good now have 2 trans coolers mounted up against the fibreglass boot with holes and a scoop for air to come in, both have fans and no boot floor, have now tried new system and seems to keep everything cool enough, and new trans temp gauge has arrived. So wont be using the finned unit for now, took 16 litres of nulon synthetic to flush the burnt fluid out, trans worked good at last meeting. dont want to rebuild it again so soon.
