Swampy442 Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 No worries, To properly check your fluid, start engine, go slowly through all the gears back to P, leave engine running and check fluid. Probably find its ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David P Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 The 'full cold' mark is about level with the join sump to casting, there is a lot of space above this before there are any moving parts, I run mine 1 litre over without issue, but it will be the drag/track users experience that will tell. I posted some pics of this yesterday in my Supracharger build thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
