well i was under my car the other night installing a shifter on the trans, i was staring up at the trans and conveter, th400, which is installed in the car already, And i realized that i had installed it (months ago) without filling the &^#*!!! converter with fluid.

so what am i looking at if i just fill the trans and fill the trans cooler with fluid and let the trans pump, fill it. I realize the converter holds around 3 or 4 quarts of fluid, will there be significant damage to dry start it and let the trans pump fill it???

in my heart i know i should unbolt the friggin thing and fill the converter......but i guess out of curiosity.....what will happen if it dry starts like mentioned above.......

thanks in advance.....
