How far did you have to go down the dipstick tube to get suction?

The length of the dipstick plus a extra 2 inches. It will bottom out but there will be some still in the pan. When you lower it, it won't spill everywhere and you can sneak the suction hose into the pan and get the rest.
The rest of the mess came from fluid dripping off the internals

Very nice. Cant wait to hear how it performs!

Took my truck on the highway today and took note of the trans temp. It's about 85 degrees today. The Pml pan holds about 2 quarts more over stock.
Cruising at 70 mph on 22 rim. I was hovering around 172 deg. Before I was 180+. Around town I hit 180 with all the stop and go.
I don't have a oem cooler but will be defiantly thinking about one in the future. The only concern is hopefully that the pan does not interfere with the routing of the American Racing headers I purchased.

Ack. Unwanted neighbors. I saw debris fall in to some of the ports. Hopefully this method works. It shouldn't be bad. It's not like a bolt or nut so it won't mess up the valves and get burnt right up

Super mounted. Pita doing it solo. Aligning the plates took a bit but got the
To go. I highly recommend getting the snap on digital torque wrench. Takes all guessing out of torquing. Visual display numbers, led that turn yellow when close to target and green/vibrate when you're there.
Another tool highly recommended is a mini inductor tool. Coil goes around nut or bolt your trying to remove. It super heats what ever the coil surrounds and gets it cherry red. Awesome for areas that you can't get a torch into.

Finished up mounting the Maggie. Now for the heat exhanger. Only have a few hours a night to tinker. Tomorrow my ARH headers come in
