Just fair warning. Sometimes you need longer bolts. That's a small inconvenience though. Wait till you have one in your hand. They're badass.

I use these two torque wrench’s for all my transmission work ! I bought these years ago ! Probably one of the best investments I’ve made !!

I have a steady drip on my trans pan I just dropped and replaced the gasket and filter. I used a lube locker gasket no cheap one and its still leaking. I drove the car around today to heat it up let it cool drove it some more let it cool still leaking. What gives? Do I need to use rtv? I tighten the bolts to 12.5 lbs or 150 inch which is what i read it called for.

BUy a cast aluminum pan. They have a super thick machined pan rail.
It will not leak no matter the gasket. I don't used stamped metal pans for anything anymore. Differential, valve covers and trans pan
are all cast and never leak.

Hard to argue against that. They are nice.

I had considered them till I saw the price of them. I was trying to avoid spending that but I may cave and just buy one.
 
Duprapene gaskets are more like $13 with shipping on-line. Unless a local part stores have them.
