the only thing B&M i have found that i like is the megashifter that i have. i'm even getting rid of my torque converter. my recommendation is to find some other synthetic to run such as royal purple or amsoil.

once you figure out how much the tranny takes, also remember that some has to go into the torque converter.

If you puy in some fluid, turn the tranny over by hand, and then fire it up, it wont damage the tranny. You can prolly figure out the right amount once its in the car and running. Not enough is ok, too much fluid will hurt it though. call up a local tranny shop, im sure they could tell you

I like the Mobil 1 synthetic ATF I run, I abuse my tranny and it takes it. Of course this is my fourth torque converter and third transmission. But I've had them for two years now, so it looks like they're strong enough for the motor.
