Transmission stick Not Reading Correctly

[Mopar_Gods]

I am pretty sure I seen a post on this subject already but I cant find it. If there is one please remove this one or if someone could post the link I would appreciate it. Changed my Transmission fluid and filter. The stick is still reading low at idle and in neutral. My dip stick measures at 19" 1/2. I replaced the fluid with 7 pints. This is what the the book listed. What am I missing here? Thank You.

I'll check the Volare for you when I get home.
That post was for an oil dipstick. I can check my Fifth here at work but I'm not sure if a slant is the same as a 318.

Thanks I knew I seen something on here. Cant think clearly when high from gas fumes. Yeah I don't want to over fill it. Thank You.

FWIW

Mirada 318/904, I dont know if the Slant differs.

22 1/2 total length, 18 1/8 to the stopper.

From my Volare Super Six.
I guess we know it's the same as a 318/904 now....

Well I have the right stick then. I have checked the level in park and in neutral and hot it is still saying it is low. And no I am not high from gas fumes Lol.

According to this capacity is 8.8 US quarts.
