i had bought a B&M and realize i couldnt use it cause of the crossover pipe of the exhaust. also with the deep pan it really wasnt much of a difference over the stock one.

also the 4L60 pan is the same as a 700R4 pan

I had one on the 60e and now have one on the 80e. You can put a jack under them without the pan crushing in - handy! If you don't have a drain plug now it will be a feature you'll come to love...

Mine looks like this:

I used the Hughes unit, however if your worried about clearance issues I believe PML sells some deep, but clearanced, oil pans.

if you've got the 4L60E, here's a pic of a late model clearanced deep tranny pan:



maybe that would work for you
