You have to weld a bung in your pan. I have a pan for sale with a drain and bung. PM if your interested. I took it off mine when I put the big Hughes Racing pan on it. Im just north of you in Meadville.
Flow to Converter will be much hotter than what's in the Pan. I like the Pan location, more of an average Trans Temp. Return line would give results on how well your Cooler is working. Your choice.
I had a friend weld a bung in the left driver-side corner of the pan and then I ran the wire up and along the speedometer cable over to the frame. Looks nice and tidy. BTW, my trans temps haven't gone above 180 which surprised me.

I have an aluminum deep pan and it was drilled and tapped for the temp sensor. So far with just an external cooler temps have been around 160 - 180. This is with a PTC NON lockup converter with some extended highway runs when very hot out. Using the B&M cooler with the fan on it. Found that the thermostat for the cooler wasn't starting the fan until 190 or so. Just bypassed it with a manual switch. Want to see if they have a different thermostat with a lower temp setting.
mark, are you having to leave the fan on to keep the temps down ? right now im still just using the 175 switch that came with the cooler. just wondering, i need to mount a cheap gauge right now to make sure my temps are in check. humm. i have a pts deep pan and the port is to small for a sender. dont have time to get it hooked up right now
