    Joe Blacks write up used about 7.5 quarts, so this is pretty close but may be a bit low.

    Just make sure that after the initial fill you start it up, run it through all of the gears, and check the level to make sure it's full. If you do that you can't go wrong with the refill.

    I pumped in nealy 2 gallons, pulled my house outta the fill hole, fluid poured out, I plugged it right way; I thought my intercooler might have a mild leak, and it poured out seconds after starting, all on the drivers side of the radiator and straight down, no way it ran over from the passenger side and ran out, it poured a quart and stopped after I shut down, dripped for a while, mess, cleaned it up and went out to get a radiator and new coolent hoses since mine are original, crazy, and I still don't know if I have a working tranny yet!
