Trans fluid?
 
I will be installing my motors back into my 86 357 soon, and noticed when I removed the engine's this fall I lost a little transmission fluid when we removed the transmision lines. Anways just wondering what type of fluid is used in the borg warner units, and how much do they take. Or how do I know they are at the correct level? Just want to have all my ducks in a row before it's install day. Thanks in advance!

Yep unscrew the T-Handle 2 turns and give her a yank and do the same when you put it back in or she'll blow it out and empty the trans and you'll be needin some new clutches faster then a stripper drops her top :eek:
