Default Installation of FLP IV trans question

With in the next couple of weeks, I will be installing my new FLP level IV trans and was hoping someone who has already done this, could give me some pointers. As far as installing the vaccumm line, is it really as easy as T-ing it into the brake booster hose? Is there any kind of brake-in period required? Will the install be just like the way it came out. What kind of ATF is recommended with this trans? Exactly how many quarts of it will i need, including my 9 1/2 VIG 3600. Should i buy a deep pan for it, or does it come with one? Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
