in the "fill" hole...























i kid i kid, you obviously didnt check the vfaq.

The drain plug is circled in pink, 24mm; the fill plug is circled in red, 17mm.

And in case you did not know, you fill it up until it comes out of the fill plug. It should take around 3 quarts IIRC. I personally put in one quart of Redline Shockproof (Heavy)(bought it online for about $8 a quart) and the rest Pennzoil Synchromesh (you can get it at Autozone). This is the generic formula that Shep recommends as it provides excellent protection. It may actually make it harder to shift, but like I said, it certainly will do more to protect your internals.
