is that without doing anything to the torque converter?
this job is actually on an old motorhome 440/727

it has a weird automated sort of dipstick with what i imagine is a low oil level sending unit.

i have another van 86 with a transmission i installed from a 74 plymouth.
i wonder if the dipstick from the 74 727 would be usable in the 76 motorhome?

tks,
rjm

After everthing drained down on my truck, it still took nine quarts and a little more to put it on the mark. The torque converter drained to just below mid level. And it drained , and it drained, and it............................. .
