On Tranny should i run Valvoline Dex/Merc III ATF and it should hold aprox 2 quarts?
which Valvoline 30w did you go with?
yes, for the tranny you should be running Dex/Merc III, DON'T go with Dex/Merc IV or synthetic. I always get as much as I can out of the tranny when changing it and the most I have been able to get back in to get the level to the full line is about 1.25 quarts. You'll be fine if it takes a little over a quart and is at the fill line. Be sure to check it after running it for a bit to make sure it's still at that level once it's warm.
