Hi all, I think I screwed up big time with my 350 tranny. I bought this 38 Chevy project with a 327/350 combo. The transmission is rebuilt (?) and has never been run since rebuild. The previous owner told me he had put 3 qts. transmission fluid in and I read somewhere that it takes 11 qts. with the torque converter. Since the engine is not running yet I couldn't check the fluid level correctly. Anyway, smart old me thought I would go ahead and add more fluid so when the engine fired up there would be sufficient fluid in the transmission. After adding 3 more qts. I now have fluid running all over my garage floor. It seems to be coming from the area where the kickdown cable goes into the transmission. The dipstick is measuring way over full. What should I have done and more importantly what the heck do I do now? Sorry for the long post but I wanted to give as much info as I could. Thanks for any suggestions and not laughing at my screw up.
