    Markup shouldn't be to bad.

    I walked out of the Holden dealer the other day after buying a few plastic clips and got enough change out of $20 for a can of coke "ha-ha".

    Mark, Garry is just doing this to help out a few guys with A6 issues. So send him a pm, he basically has to give up a day though mucking about with the pans making the baffles, machining the extensions, boxing them up and sending them out again, he isn't making any money on it can do that elsewhere so just a favour for the guys to hopefully see some progress.

    Re: Filling 6L80E

    Finally got a price on bulk buy of 8 Caddy and 8 normal pans so have sent gaz05 a PM to see if he wants to buy the normal pans and have them sent up to him as not sure if future buys will be at the same price and he deserves first say for his groundbreaking work!

    All I'll say now is they're far better priced than list price (normal pan $88 + GST = $96.80 and Caddy pan $91 + GST = $100.10).

    My car is back with the new tranny pan fitted - got an extra 4l of oil in it. It looks really good and so far feels very good. Terry did a few adjustments to the A6 tune and it is now very sweet - a really good balance of smooth shift and quick sharp changes. Will take it back to the track early in the new year. We've decided to put a lock up hi stall convertor in it - 2,500rpm - it's low rpm as I still need to tow my boat.

    Regards, Dan

    Dan!!

    I'm going to the dealer for something else today so will see if my pans have come in yet. I'm not hopeful as I expected an email saying they were on their way first.

    My Caddy filter arrived from the USA Tuesday so yesterday I express posted it up to gaz05 for him to check out in relation to the Caddy pan as to whether he could drop it lower etc..

    Good to hear Dan, it makes all the difference when you keep the oil up to them.... PS go 3000 at least, mine has 3500 with a basic 6lt and I lug along at 90k locked up in 6th at about 1800rpm.

    i agree, if it's a decent dual or tripple plate stall the bigger the better especially if towing.

    i can lock mine up at full throttle, so locking up at a lower speed with some weight on the back shouldnt be a problem.
    It's happened before, It will all happen again.

    Hi Gary - thanks mate.

    Yes haven't decided yet - was thinking maybe 2,800 - I drive every day in traffic so I don't need it too high.

    Regards, Dan
