This is my first post here.
I have a custom vehicle with an aftermarket Billet Specialties dipstick.
The transmission is a 4L70E With a Stock Pan.
The engine is an LS2.
Due to this custom Fluid dipstick, I don’t trust my fluid level. I believe the trans fluid is low, but paranoid about overfilling.
When I put this car into gear with the brake depressed, it lurches forward. I believe the fluid is low.
Advice?
If I drop the transmission pan, I thought I could measure the number of Quarts that drain out.
It should be 6 Quarts. Obviously, If less than I will add more.
This aftermarket dipstick tells me the fluid level is OK.
I’m skeptical.
Thank You

That is not a sign of low fluid, probably a sign of high idle.

How do you go about adjusting the idle?

It depends upon the year; it should be the Idle Air Control on the Throttle Body, you need to use the reset procedure

"the reset procedure ". Is this, "disconnect the Positive battery terminal for a moment?" procedure?
