the torx55 in the bottom of the last photo is your fill port.
Correct fluid level is filled until it runs out of the removed TX40 center plug shown in first photo with engine idling 10 or more minutes but not driven. The 17mm drain plug has a 3 inch (or close to that) tall pipe that goes up in trans and when it is overfilled it will run down pipe and exit through the hole when tx40 plug is removed.

Thank you gentlemen! It all worked out as advertised and the drawings and photos were very helpful! Now....has anyone dared use a synthetic for an extended time with no problems?

You can fill through the radiator hose or from the torx 55 fill hole on top of the transmission. Someone asked about the torx bolt (centered in the bolt) for leveling and where to get it- Tasca sells it according to others on S.S., but I never saw a part number discussed: http://forums.swedespeed.com/showthread ... -Automatic
