Just print 1:1 and drill to your heart's content.

Big thanks for posting this link.... It'll make frilling the stealt holes a much nicer experience.....

The links don't work anymore....someone please help!! I just bought a woven TQ10 Graphite chassis....in B+ condition. I also just finished assembling a brand new Stealth Transmission. I do not want to mess this up so I really need the template. Also, any ideas on countersinking the holes?

HELLLLLP hahah

Anyone still have this template??

If all else fails, you can use a stock aluminum chassis pan for a template. Just bolt-on your graphite chassis using the rear suspension mounting holes and drill the four tranny holes.
If you need a cheap stock chassis to use for a template, here's one on ebay for a little more than 20 bucks -- there might be others for less money, I just spent a few minutes and found this one. It's pretty rough underneath but the holes appear to be in good shape. You can always resell the chassis or keep it for a future build.

Edit: Here's a cheaper one:

...comes with a battery cup and antenna mount, not bad for 10 bucks.
