I just got one form Summit yesterday, and decided to do a test fit and comparison with my stock unit. What a nice item, I was very impressed. The bracket that mates up to the transmission bellhousing is in EXACTLY the right spot, and the rubber boot on the end will assure me no leaks.

My stock unit looks nice, but when you install it, it just falls into the transmission hole, and you just know it's gonna leak on me. The Hughes piece also has has a locking cap, and though definitely not stock looking, most probably won't even pick up on it.
