Thats almost a quart, it could have an effect on properly lubing and cooling the gears. Anytime you are adding gear oil to tranny, diff, add it till it comes out of the fill hole.

I`ve been using LUCAS products, they`re rear end and gear lube also has the friction modifier. Mostly I started to use them cause they use to use a blue `65 GTO in their T.V. adds.
