Its on the right hand side of the auto, its mounted in a boss which is in the plumbing pipes that go thru to the cooler.
Just forward of the selector box thingie.

You will probably need to get an adapter machined to get the aftermarket probe to fir...

i had an adaptor made to fit into the lines closer to the trans cooler inlet to give a reading to the trans temp gauge, got all the parts from Dewtec on Tremaine ave :)
