This document is an automatic transmission identification chart that shows the oil pan (gasket) outline shapes and bolt counts for common domestic automatic transmissions. Each illustration depicts the distinctive pan shape with its bolt hole pattern, labeled with the number of pan bolts and the transmission model(s) it corresponds to. GM transmissions covered include the TH350 (13 bolts), TH400 (13 bolts), TH700R4/4L60/4L60E (16 bolts), TH200 (11 bolts), 2004R (16 bolts), aluminum-case Powerglide (PG, 14 bolts), and 4L80-E (17 bolts).

A reader can use this chart to identify an unknown automatic transmission installed in a vehicle simply by looking at the pan from underneath and matching its shape and bolt count to one of the fourteen outlines shown. The chart is undated and does not specify vehicle years or applications beyond the transmission model names.
