Filling 6L80E

OK, good idea as they don't usually have one but just looks a bit exposed. Wonder if it can be shortened slightly? Or have a U or V shaped piece of metal welded in front of it for protection at a 45 degree angle?

Good idea Gary - Terry's making another one for me - he wasn't 100% happy with this one. WIll get the new version plus a high stall fitted in the next few weeks.

Any chance you could externally host those pics for us non-validated members.

Yes no worries - I'll put them on photobucket this evening.

Cheers for that

How does the auto behave with the new pan fitted? Is there a noticable difference or does the tune need tweaking first to realise the true benefit from it?

Flaring has all but been eliminated especially on hills and hard acceleration. I need to take it back to Willowbank to really see how it goes. I'll be doing that in a few weeks time.

Received notification today that the 8 Caddy pans Holden have left will be at my dealer in the next day or two and when I get them I'll send them straight up to gaz05 for modification as he has bought them all from me to do his modifications on and sell on to interested members. Therefore, if you want one contact him - I know a number are already spoken for. The filters I should have here by the time gaz has finished all his mods.

It's a good job, but it looks a little bit too exposed to me...
I drove off a stupid driveway at the shops on the weekend, and I touched down around that area bloody hard, I crapped myself and worryingly looked for any leaks when I got home (think I only hit the rails fortunately)...

Best to PM gaz05 to make sure he sees it.

is there going to be a pipe line for just the caddy pan and filter... im not going to need the baffles as im not racing it.

Guys, if (like kayman in the post above mine) you had no need for the baffles, would the caddy pan and filter option be a good investment to get some more fluid into the tranny? Is the caddy filter taller than the normal filter, so it sits in the bottom of the caddy pan allowing for the extra depth?

Yes good point. I forgot to mention that I now have Pedders heavy duty springs and shocks all round. Raised car height a cm or 2. So clearance is a bit better than standard VE setup.

That's a question for gaz05 to best answer as although I've seen the Caddy pan and Caddy filter separately I haven't seen them together plus I've never seen an A6 with the pan off, so am not sure how/where the filter connects. From memory I do believe he suggested in one of his previous replies that the Caddy pan and filter alone would be an improvement.

PS My Caddy A6 pans still haven't arrived at my dealer. Will do more chasing up next week as I know that as of early last week they were at their main branch.
