Interesting conversation. I had to go to an flexable aftermarket dipstick, due to clearance problems. I added the fluid till I got what my trans builder said, then added two quarts for the deep pan, and confirmed it with him. The fluid level shows to be at the top of the marker on the dip stick cable. I `m wondering if I have too much in it >any ideas how to check and set it ? wondering about pulling the dipstick tube (flexable) and letting it drain to that level . all thots appreciated-------bob
