200R4 Aluminum pan

[TURBO2]

I've been looking for an aluminum transmission pan for my 86 GN. I can find them for every GM transmission ever made for ~$60 to $150 , until I search for 200R4 and then the price goes up to $350 to $600. What is the deal? They are no bigger than the others, smaller is some cases.

 

[Grumpy]

Simple really.. Supply an demand.

Almost makes me want to rip the thing out and go to something more modern.

Finding something newer that's actually better is a five digit proposition.

I have a spare deep aluminum pan if you want to consider used. I would have to get some pics. Send me a PM if you are interested.

Thanks, I saw this, but it's up over $300. Also, it seems you can't actually buy it directly, you are just sending him your info and waiting for him to call you back.

That pan is bada$$. I am pretty sure Husek uses that pan on all his transmissions.

You have a link? He doesn't have them on his website.

Dave Husek used a Hughes pan on the transmission he built for me.

Stef sells these exclusively thru another vendor. I’ll post their name & contact info as soon as I can dig it up for ya .
Last time I heard, believe they were over $700 though
Leave it with me

The Hughes Deep Pan with 700R4 bottom feeder filter works good for my purposes , no issues
Had it powder coated black afterwards

 

[GNICETRY]

That is a bada$$ pan!!! Doesn't the powdercoating retain more heat though?

 

[1KWIKSIX]

It probably does , but I haven’t found any issues with it being powder coated .
I do have an Alradco aluminum radiator & both oil / transmission cooler within the end tanks so it’s negligible. Keep in mind this thing holds an extra 2 or 2-1/2 quarts extra fluid. I’m running DexVI fluid which is synthetic so it better heat tolerant

 

[conn84gn]

Almost 12 quarts with Daves build with pan and extra front mount tranny cooler.
