Hello! I'm just wondering how hot, on average, the outside of the tranny gets? I'm planning to put a "funnel" in for my a/c drain (a 'la Jim), and was thinking about attaching one of the vinyl hoses O got to the bottom of the funnel, if it'll fit. I just want to make sure that the tranny case won't melt the vinyl hose...

Thanks!
