I have a 95 z28 with the 4l60e. I am installing the transmisson. This is the first removal and install I have done with a transmission. I need to know if, I need to put tranny fluid in the torque converter? If so, how much? Also, when I get it installed how much fluid do I need to put in? Any other comments/thoughts/tips? Please let me know, thanks guys!

 

yes ya fill the conv most will hold 2 qt just fill it till it cant take anymore but give it time to settle .once trans is in the car if empty put in 1.5 gal let it settle and see whre ya are then add as needed once a little overfull start car and cylcle from rev to drive a few times then fill agin till toppped off .all in all about 2-3 gallons will be needed

 

okay.. maybe this is me being blonde.. but if you have the torque converter off.. then fill it almost all the way full when its on the ground. When you go to put it on the transmission, wont it spill out?

 

a little will not a ton
