Well I made a mistake, and seriously I dont need any bs about how dumb i am for what i did , I know it was stupid but I decided my first car project at to be a third gen ls1 conversion so I am going to make dumb mistakes. But here is what I did, before I put my 3700 Midwest stall on I didnt pour a quart of ATF in the coverter. All is want to know is there anything I can do to get around dropping the trans to pour the quart in the converter? Id appreciate any info thanks.

Just make sure you add enough fluid when you get it running.
It will fill the converter. Shouldn't even be a problem.

Thats what I figured because I know the fluid flows from the trans to the converter, and I know that there was some residual fluid in the converter anyway so I dont think that it is going to burn up on start up (the car isnt running yet). But I was looking in car craft or some magazine and I saw them pourin a quart in the converter and I was like damn it i forgot to do that. Hopefully its all good, thanks for the help.

Just keep your fingers crossed when you start it up.

Hope it works out for ya!

O yes, fingers will definatly be crossed for many different reasons...lol thanks

Keep the fluid in the tranny now. Cross the fingers and he legs when you start. I would have a lump in my gut as soon as I turn the key. Hope all is well. Then again... it is a F-BODY.... No worries...

Just put 5 or 6 quarts in before start-up.Start the car in neutral and add the rest (5 or so more). It'll be fine.

Just don't drive it until you've got her all filled up, it should be ok.

yeah it will for sure be fine. I forgot to add the quart to the converter that I put into my v6 I had. I started it, left it in neutral, and added fluid as it needed. It was fine.
