Does the level of gear lube in a rear end have any effect on performance? If the gear lube level is filled to the bottom of the fill plug, can or does windage come into play creating performance losses?
If so, on a 12 bolt Chevrolet how much lube should be used and/or where should the level be relative to the ring and pinion?
