Yep, I got more Silicone ( RTV)then the spice girls on this thing and it still leaks. Let it set for 3 days, started it today for the first time. I'm going to Order a tci Dip Stick and see if that helps.

What else could it be? the car runs fine through all gears.

When we talked, you said it only leaked while running. Do you have transmission lines in the vacinity?

Yes, but there not hitting the tube at all. Not leaking from the trans lines either.

Mark... how long was this trans sitting before you put it in the car and ran it ?
Could be that the front pump seal dried out during storage or may not have been replaced on the rebuild. If its leaking from there it would weep out of the inspection cover and coat the pan with fluid making it look as if it was coming from say the dip stick inlet.
Throw that bad boy on the lift and have someone start it while you look from underneath. That way you're not guessing.

Figures it out, Todd was right, it's leaking from the trans line an fittings.

Todd, can I use anything on the AN fittings going into the transmission? It's leaking right where the screw into the side.

Is it leaking at the oring or flare connection?
