About how high should my manual tranny fluid be in under my shifter, I'm taking off my shifter to put on a short throw and was just wondering?

Oh and do I use auto or manual fluid, my cars a 94 5.0

Its ATF fluid and to verify the level you have to pull a plug on the pass side of the tranny...Just topping it off from the top could be voodoo..

To augment Andy's post a hair: specifically, you'd want Mercon ATF.
