Three quarts in and no spilling out the fill plug?? Weird?

Yes. I haven't had any problems.
I had a post about this not to long ago. Might want to search to see if you can find it. Just do a search for "Torco" you should be able to find it.

If the car is jacked up, even a little, the tranny will take in more fluid then normal due to the incline. Just an FYI

The other day mine took a full 3 quarts. I used 2 jacks in the rear with jackstands and used a level to make sure the car was flat. Once I got it perfect, some spilled out.
