I'm sure it's been discussed here before but I have another dumb question. Does a WC T-5 use Dexron II or III, and how much does it hold? Also I was told that you can add fluid by pouring it into the shifter hole, is that true? See, I told you it was a dumb question. "P"

Dextron III. I think I used Dextron VI in my Tremec T5 which is the synthetic version but says on the back it is compatible with Dextron III. I pored in about three quarts into the side until it came out the side hole. Later I realized there is a top hole with a rubber bung.

Thanks George, I have to tow it home from the hanger with a tow bar this morning and need to replace fluid lost during installation because I didn't have an extra slip yoke. If (what am I saying IF) I ever have to pull it again I'll get an extra yoke first. Thanks again for the info, "P"
