Sorry bud. We haven't done the manual yet. We may put the "teardrop" style **** in the kit though rather than the round one since it gives it a "beefier" appearance and better grip. Not sure though

I am shooting for accepting orders at SEMA time. We are also trying to drive the cost down a little more to make it more price conscious. Currently, we are about a $300 street price but think with a bit more tweaking we can bring it down even more without sacrificing any quality of the unit

To be honest, it doesn't matter, Chris. I'm sure the bundled **** will work fine, and we'll be able to change it if we don't like it. So as long as B&M ensures that that unit holds up under abuse, and it doesn't damage our cars, we should all be cool with the rest.

Looks like the trans pan will not be released. There are too many issues with the factory fill procedure and its pressurized process etc. It is a big headache and not worth it IMO for what the costs of the pan would be , then the fill process on top of that. The benefit of extra fluid and cooling doesn't outweigh the cost at this point.. Just being honest...

There are already other trans pan options available... one is deep pan with a dipstick, and another is a dipstick kit that can be added to the stock pan.

Don W - Yes, those two options do exist. The PA deep pan is "too" deep for use on a lowered car, and the Ratstang add-on dipstick looks like quite a project for the do-it-yourselfer. I was hoping there would be an OEM looking standard pan with dipstick. Oh well......
