That sounds about right. It took me about .5-.8 I guess.

Note: They need to bend the bracket a little where it bolts to the tranny, otherwise you can't remove the pan for fluid changes. It hides a couple of the bolt heads. (BTW - that's not where mine broke. The clamp that goes around the exhaust pipe is what broke.

I was a little disappointed at how flimzy (light guage) the bracket was. If you wanted to get serious about it, you might consider looking at the diagram to see how it's attached and then go to a good welding shop and have them fab one out of heavier stuff. It would probably be more $'s but last longer. BTW - the installation requires removing a part of the heat shield from the exhaust pipe if your car has it. (Not a big deal. It comes off easy with a hammer and chisel to break the spot welds.)
