How much does tranny need?

I have just finished installing my engine on my 86 GXL but need to know how much gear oil does the manual tranny need??
Also I know that the shifter needs oil but do I also use gear oil or is it a different lube?? :confused:
Thanx

About 2 1/2 quarts, IIRC...

You can use the same stuff for the shifter housing...

unitl it meets the fill port and comes back down on you making a huge mess...

Lol, or until it starts pouring out of the speedo cable hole because you forgot to put it back on :)

Thanks
I already put 2 quarts in it but I didn't put anything on the shifter housing!!!
Will that affect anything?
