The new Manny tranny came with 12 qts fluid. How much do I put in to start with? OEM Cooler and lines and torque converter are dry. Then top off after starting? I also have added the aluminum trans pan. How much more captivity is it? 2 qts? Does the position of the oil filter pick up make any difference in the deep pan?
