JulianLots of Pantera owners add a stainless vent tube, breather cap or filter but very few have any sort of catch can, there really should not be any fluid loss through the vent, especially if you provide a little vertical height out of the transaxle.
The last time that I changed the transaxle oil, I drained it and added 3 quarts. I marked a homemade dipstick at that level. See attached photos.If you're misting, is there too much oil in the case? That's the only time I've heard of this happening (yeah, in all my years... of GT40 experience!).
I think it was 2.7 quarts for the first fill and 2.2 there after? I'd have to dig deeper to refresh my memory, or maybe someone else knows it by heart (Ron?? @Pantera1889)

Does a ZF use the same amount of oil when flipped for use in a GT40 as when it's the other way up in a Pantera?
So if I used 3 quarts, approximately 2.84 litres, is that enough extra fluid (over 2.5 litres) to cause it to mist out of the breather, or worse, to damage my transaxle or potentially overwhelm the seals and ruin my clutch?I can't comment on the comparison vs. Pantera, but I did go back through my PM's and confirm that Ron said 2.5 liters in our configuration.
