It doesn't fit a v6 Camaro.........not even close........to use it you would need to bend it to clear the coolant pipe that runs down the right side of the engine and find a way to attach it to a bolt some place. The bracket that it has ends up hitting the cat. Would need to make a bracket then attach it to something. I also noticed it fits fairly loose into the hole in the transmission so it easily will pull out if not secured properly. Now I used it to fill my transmission then pulled it out and put the factory plug back in. So it does make I nice funnel attachment to fill the trans up but that's all it is good for. If you had it on a lift and made a bracket you could tack weld a bracket easily to it BUT I'd still want something down around the seal to keep the tube in the trans. The bracket is so far away and weak from the end of the tube that something could easily dislodge the tube from the trans while driving. Still better than nothing if you gotta fill the trans back up after changing the filter.

It is usable, I easily bent it to fit the engine but I didn't have the time to fab a decent bracket. It did work great for refilling the trans also. I'm going to remount it and fab a bracket that simply bolts to one of the trans bell bolts then drill a few small holes in the dip stick bracket to attach it. My biggest concern is the hole in the trans, there is nothing to secure the dip stick to keep it in the hole. The dip stick has no lip at the seal to secure anything to it. I was thinking maybe some stainless safety wire wrapped around the tube above the seal then bring it down to one of the pan bolts to secure it. Gotta watch things like a dip stick can vibrate quite a bit and work loose easily.
