727 dry start

NO WAY! Six quarts will aerate the fluid. Two minutes can scuff the pump bushing. ALWAYS run the trans to the full mark. And it's okay to shut off a motor during breakin.

Then tell Chrysler they made a mistake. That is taken directly, verbatim, from the 1969 Charger/Coronet/Dart Factory Service Manual, page 21-48. I also couldn't find anything in the TSB's on The 1970 Hamtramck Registry Home Page that contained this caution. shruggy.gif
