YOURE RIGHT!!!

Its only 3.2 quart capacity. Holy crap! Where did I read 6.2??? And I did several changes to make sure I got all of it for no apparent reason!

Great correction there. This means you truly do only have to drain and fill once, much nicer.

Boy so I feel stupid. [sm=laughat.gif]

What about the fluid in the torque converter?
There is no torque converter in a manual transmission.
Eh... sorry, this whole thread I thought he was talking about an automatic. Guess I need to drink my coffee before reading the forums. Sorry.
He never said what type of trans he had. But its in his signature. It took me a while to figure it out as well.

On my V8 GT the drain plug is pointing downwards... For anyone's future reference.

I am sure you aren't first or last to do that. Asked this same question in another thread and was told we couldn't change 5 speed tranny fluid it had to be done at Dealership. Obviously that dude was talking out his a**
