* Powerglide (2-speed automatic): Around 4-5 quarts.
* Turbo Hydra-Matic 350 (3-speed automatic): Around 10-12 quarts (This includes the torque converter fill).
* Turbo Hydra-Matic 400 (3-speed automatic): Around 12-14 quarts (This includes the torque converter fill).
* Manual transmissions (various): Capacity varies significantly by model. You'll need to identify the specific manual transmission (e.g., Muncie M20, M21, Saginaw) to determine the capacity.
To find the correct capacity:
1. Identify your transmission: Look for a tag on the transmission itself or consult your owner's manual. The tag will often have a model number.
2. Consult a repair manual: A Chilton's or Haynes repair manual for your specific year and model Nova will give you the precise transmission fluid capacity.
3. Check online resources: Websites specializing in classic car parts or forums dedicated to Novas might have this information.
Simply stating it's a 1974 Chevy Nova isn't enough to determine the transmission fluid capacity. You need to know the specific transmission type.
