Correct Filter Kit C-6 ?
Want to start flushing and sealing my C6, there seem to be a lot of generic filter kits and then I see some that delineate 4wd ? Looks like the 4wd kits have a short spout that comes down off the filter housing for a pickup in a deeper pan 
Im not home right now and wont have it off until the weekend, thought I would ask before I order a filter kit..... 
coming off a 76' F250 4wd........ and I have no reason to believe its not the original tranny. Thanks in advance....... Also any recommendations has to a brand or make for the filter kit, or does it really matter for that ?

As far as I remember, the pan was it. I think the 4x4 pan was like deeper or higher capacity maybe, not sure why. maybe they figured extra slopes needed more oil. I thought when I did it the kits came with both sumps, and you used the deep or shallow for what you needed.

4WD's use a different C6 pan and filter than 2WD

Here's what the 4WD and 2WD filters look like, taken from my own build thread.
Note that you MUST KEEP your pick-up tube for the 4x4 filter! These are not supplied with the filter and cost extra ($$$$).
Thanks to GIGGER, I'm putting in the proper transmission filter (thanks again for noticing this GIGGER!).
4x4 filter out.
2WD (proper) filter in. Lubed up like crazy because I want to keep the interals wet until I actually install this C6 in my truck. Currently it's all lubed and prepped, just needs to be filled.
Perfect Thank U
