wats up guys.ive got a couple questions that i needs answers to so i can finish my n/a to tt swap and feel comfortable.

1.how much oil do i need to put in to my fully drained 93' usdm vg30dett motor with a brand new oil filter and unfilled oil cooler.

2.how much gear oil needs to go into my fully drained 93' 5spd manual transmission.

3.when i installed my harness i did not use di-electric grease.its not a big deal becuz i bought a new Z1 harness thats suposed to hold up to extreme temperatures.but i wud like to hear other peoples opinion on that.

FSM says:Engine oil with filter change: 3 5/8 quartsTransmission: 5 7/8 pints

The transmission is easy though. As long as you're on level ground you can't overfill it as the fill plug is on the side. Once you're at the limit, the excess oil will come out.

As far as the dielectric grease, it would probably be good to have but I wouldn't think mandatory. It would definitely help prevent corrosion though.
