That's full system capacity. You can't get that fluid out unless you pressurize the system. When you drain, it's only ~3qts.

Also curious on everyone's experience. I was getting some grinding on the track in 3-2 downshifts with ATF and I think it happened once with the Tremec fluid diluted some with the remaining ATF in the lines. Track temps per logging is a tad over 200F so the thicker fluid makes sense to me for track use.

Well, I was so impressed with it in the 1LE, I almost immediately swapped it into the Blackwing. Over on the Blackwing forum, folks were complaining of the same issues as here and the consensus seems to be the HP-MTF is better.


Only problem now is catching it in stock at the TREMEC store.
