Regarding a recent entry titled ''Pump Splines'':
 +
 +
"'''''A transmission's pump uses splines that rotate on a circle off center.  They are "open" at one point, allowing the gaps between the splines to fill with oil then "closed" at another to push it out through another passage.  Using more splines in a pump gives a better, more consistent flow of fluid.  Since fluid pressure is how automatic transmissions work, a solid pump helps make a solid tranny. For the 700r4 or its later, almost identical, twin the 4l60E, a 29 spline pump is one of the most popular choices for an effiecent and durable pump.'''''"<br><br>

The pumping portion of the TH2004R and TH700R4 through 4L70E pumps use '''''vanes''''', in varying numbers depending on the transmission and year, to provide pump output.

There are basically three factory TH700R4 pumps: the early small input shaft-type uses a '''7'''-vane pump; the 1984-'96 large input shaft-type uses a '''10'''-vane pump (c/n 732); 1997-up uses a '''13'''-vane pump.<br style="clear:both"/>

"Gerotor"-type pumps (left), as used in the TH350/400 and 4L80 transmissions, could be described as having "splines that rotate on a circle off center". <br style="clear:both"/>
