Aftermarket tranny pans

Does anyone have experience or an opinion on aftermarket tranny pans. I'm having my TH-350 rebuilt and am considering getting one. I'm not going for looks, I just want one for the extra fluid capacity and better cooling. Do they really help that much, or would my $100 be better spent elsewhere on my truck? The truck will just be used for a daily driver and the engine is basically stock.
And if they are worth it, will they fit on our trucks? When I drained my tranny, the factory pan had very little clearance. Since the aftermarket pans are deeper, will one even fit without modifying the crossmember?
Anyone have any experience with one of these?
