Who's asking how to fill up a trans with fluid?
My 17 year old neice can do it.
Oh I appreciate all the name calling.
Remember I'm here on my own time, I'm not a sponsor trying to suck up to everyone to get sales.
I get nothing.
Yet I still give the best advice I can for what ever it's worth.

Thats how I do it. Thats how most people do it. Why are you asking something you already know

If LS1_PNYTAMR asked the question then where the hell do you fit in here?
Add five, the pan won't hold much more, start it and add four more, cycle the gears, check the stick, leave the level below the mark, take it for a drive with some spare fluid and funnel. Drive 15 minutes, run it through PRND321, park on level ground, check it.

Default Transmission fluid

I recently installed a new DR. Evil level 2, Yank SS3600 and a new cooler. It took 8.5 quarts to fill it up.

Ok lets set it straight.

I recently installed a new DR. Evil level 2, Yank SS3600 and a new cooler. It took 8.5 quarts
Bone dry a stock tranny will take 11 qts.
12 with cooler isnt it?
I'd say 10-11 or so.
mine took 9 quarts, 1 pint, 2.756 ounces. but then again that was on a 2 degree incline, with 43 psi in three tires and 40 in the other one.
