Pull the trans pan off before you put fluid in it and see how much the dipstcik sticks out of the dipstick tubes, if it is even with the bottom of the tube start with 6 quarts,(is nix sprecken zee litres , dang Yanks ) and then start the motor up with the tranny in nuetral, move the shifter from forward to reverse several times and then check the fluid level, add fluid until it reads between the end( tip) of the stick and the add mark when cold, do not overfill it so it reads above the full mark when hot Especially with a deep pan Why not try contacting John Cope and ask him what initial fill to use
