Re: ATX rebuilds
When filing the transmission from dry what I've done is pour four quarts into the pan (from the dipstick tube) and let it set for a couple of hours. Then the fluid can fill the valve body passages, etc. This has always worked for me, I don't think there is a priming procedure. Just let the engine idle to pump that fluid around, don't put it into gear right away. Check and fill in small increments (1pint, maybe 1qt max increments).
