HI. I am about to install my Lentech Valve Body in my AOD. The vb came with the fitting and wire, but I am wondering how you guys drilled for the fitting? I have a deep Trick Flow pan, and figure I could probably just drill and tap the pan either on the side, or bottom. If any of you have done this I would like to know your opinions. Pictures would be helpful if anyone has any.

Thank You

Chris

Also, if you do a deep pan you may want to get a filter that will locate further down in a deep pan. Read where the filter from a ‘92 Bronco, 302 4X4 will work and the AutoZone P/N is TF202.

I ended up running it through my pan. Drilled and tapped.

I would go thru the top like the factory and leave the pan alone
You're not going to want to be messing with the wiring every time you drop the pan
And there is less chance of a leak

Inside the pan the wire has a connector that can be unplugged so dropping the pan would be easy. I can't think of a reason I would drop the pan.
