Trans pan replacement options

I inquired a few weeks ago about adding a '08 pan and filter setup, but once I started thinking I might want the 4+ qts that an aftermarket holds.....aside from mag hytec which is overpriced in my. pinion.....what other options/brands do you guys know of that I cN look inti?

Thanks

In the full version of FTE (not mobile) it's at the bottom of every post. I've also noticed when I'm on mobile my posts don't have my sig (if I see them later on the computer).

May I ask WHY you want a BIGGER pan? It just takes the fluid LONGER to get up to operating temps..... And more $ to change it! If you need it cool, spend your bucks on a better cooler.

Im not convinced a bigger pan is what i want, but the extra cooling of the aluminum pan with cooling fins along with the extra fluid cant hurt....instead of having an exter.al cooler with hoses and/or fan etc etc that has the opportunity to fail....thats my thought

......and most of these aftermarket pans come with a real internal filter. Even under the most severe service my trans has never seen over 190*. I dont have a cooling issue just looking for a longevity upgrade as well.

Mark K has posted before that the larger/finned aluminum pan does absolutely nothing to lower temp fluid, something about a boundary layer insulating the fluid inside the pan. External heat exchangers are the only things that work in that department.

I will always argue that one. It may not be a big difference, but I bet there is a difference. Additional cooling capacity with additional fluid and greater surface area of the pan.

There is a difference... there's more fluid so it stays hotter longer because there's more to cycle through the cooler.
