Question filling bwt5

when you fill the borg warner t5, the filler hole is the one with the square plug correct?

Do you fill it all the way up to hole?

What happens if you overfill it? Does it just **** out the back?

I'm trying to get my 84 300Z turbo back on the road, but this transmission is not co-operating.

Thanks

Yeah, thats what i thought. Just wanted to make sure. Unfortunately this means I'm still leaking most of my fluid out the extension housing. I think I got the wrong seal from the autoparts store. I reordered the seal from autozone it should be here tuesday.

Unfortunately I won't really get a chance to work on it for two weeks, since this coming weekend is my squadron's drill weekend and active duty has to work during drill. So unless I still feel like turning wrenches when I get home, I wont have my Z on the road for yet another two weeks.

Although when I test drove it today after re-filling it, I figured if I'm not gonna drive it for two weeks I might as well have a little fun with it. I took it on a dry lake bed near my house and drifted around on the dirt/sand/dust for a little while.
