How many Quarts of Fluid go in the auto tranny. I just bought 4 B&M synthetic Trick shift shit I was wondering if it takes more than 4

Consult the FSM, I'm sure it has the answer.


Off-Topic question though: How did you get the Stillen front strut bar to fit on a 99?

silverser99: The FSM says 7 3/8 quarts.

storm88000: What seems to be the problem that many people are having with the fitment of the Stillen FSB, mine went right in with no probelms or modifications. Could you clear this up?

I've seen a Stillen FSTB on a 99SE (Saaby). It fits fine, I'm not sure why anyone would have problems.
The path the bar takes across the engine avoids the emissions tubes.

I see.... I was unaware it was any different.

Yeah stillen gives you little spacers or something to put in you just have to unscrew the stock spacer thingies on the intake manifold and screw in the new ones

I would not use the B&M stuff, it's crap. Stick with Mobil or go to Amsoil. I use Amsoil in all my cars, it's a little expensive, but works better than anything on the market right now....

Yeah I looked for the amsoil synthetic ATF in the store but I couldnt find it. I liked the Mobil 1 but I just wanted to try something different in an attempt to make the shifts a little firmer/faster but when I asked a rep at the auto place he said that amsoil is like an avon product sort of like mail order so I said damn foo thats some shit

Use Mobil 1, anything but that B&M crap. First of all, if I remember correctly it's kind of a hybird type f fluid, which will make any tranny that takes dextron fluid shift nice and hard, but at the expense of the trans itself. Just my opinion, but that stuff is junk. Get something that will hold up to exterme heat, preferably synthetic...
