Well one thing I forgot to mention was it was smoking pretty bad  
after the test drive(burning AT fluid), and I did spill a bit filling  
it back up with the "slightly too big funnel", and assumed that was  
it.  I looked under there, and it was all over the place.  On closer  
inspection, one of the corners of the pan gasket slipped on install,  
and it's gushing out that corner....Ouch.  Looks like I get to do it  
all over again.  ONLY lost a quart in about 5 minutes.  Gonna try and  
leave the exhaust in place, as I just need to loosen the pan and get  
the gasket in it's proper place.....My fault for putting it on after  
working a long day, without adequate lighting.....Tom
