The capacity of the reservoir is about two quarts (it is a Moroso radiator tank). I would have gone with the engine oil line except I already had this setup for my other gearbox. I forgot to include that I have a cooler, pressure switch, and temp probe installed in my system. The oil leaving the planetary gearbox is very close to shaving cream, which may work fine for the engine and the gearbox, but I am concerned about the cooling ability for a turbo.
