727 transmission fluid

I`m wondering about some of the info here too. I have never seen a filter imprint in a torqueflite or a tubo 350, or a turbo 400, all had deep pans with the appropriate extensions. Why run a deep pan if u are not going to use the extra fluid ? After it heats up, it will still be the same temp. !

I've never seen a filter imprint on anything in my life with a stock pan and I've done transmission services since I was ten years old. I am 53 now. Also, the service manual ain't always right. The information I am sharing here is from my personal experience. I cannot ever remember putting 6 quarts in a 904 or 727 that had a stock pan just on a drain and fill/filter replace. The best thing to do is to trust the dipstick. If it tells you to put six quarts in, then do it. Do whatever the dipstick reads. Pretty simple, really.
