While waiting to get my engine and transmission back from Lillikers I was wondering what kind of oil and how much does a Chicago transmission take?

I run 600W in mine, mostly because I have a 5 gallon pail of it, but 120 gear lube would work also. Fill it to about 1/2" below the fill hole on the side of the trans.
