Only three words. "I WANT ONE!"

Good Job Fitzmotor!
A lot of 10R80 owners are going to see this and want one for their make/model.

I think I have settled on a smaller diameter pad and the clear heat shrink, this is a final version so far, I am verifying the length fitment (I think it needs to be 1/4" shorter)

Looks great, but I think we are all going to be shocked when you say we can order!!!!!
I think he should take as much time as he needs to make it the best he can. This is one of those parts that has to be perfect right from the start as it not only has to be perfect at the seal area to the trans, but has to have the correct marking to indicate proper fluid level.....no guess-work involved...has to be damn near perfect, and I can understand his trying to get it right.
We have all seen his work and followed the progression from just a thought to almost a final product...once he's happy with it, we'll be happy with it.

Well I can see now in reading my post that my wording appears to allude rushing the product but as I've mentioned in another post, I feel also that the product must be right and work before shipping. Maybe I should have previewed my post before posting. Sorry

Shortening the length? That will or won't send you back to the drawing board on the dip stick itself?
