If you have a Factory transmission pan the use the filter 200-4r opening with the tube facing upward
If you have a deep transmission pan then use a 700-4r filter
Very important, one of the pictures there is a square line box showing a metal clip to prevent the filter from touching the electrical post terminals, and also use shrinking tubing on all terminals to prevent the filter metal casing from grounding out the post terminals.

some deep pan setups use a screen filter from other trans, usually 727. post up a pic
