Nas Escobar Posted July 21, 2014 Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 Why exactly would you need to change the oil filter if you're changing transmissions? I thought the oil filter is on the even cylinder side (the one closer to the head lights) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nas Escobar Posted July 21, 2014 Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 That's interesting, my 3800 Camaro has It way past the balancer. Its closer to the A/C pulley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carkhz316 Posted July 21, 2014 Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 Yes the reatta is the one to use. Also, the 85-87 Pontiac grand ams with the 3.0 use the same one. You'll still need to modify them by relocating or deleting the oil sending unit as they point straight up into the power steering pump on W-Body 3800s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
