Porsche Crest How much gear oil

Can't locate info regarding the amount of gear oil in a 915 tranny.

I'm trying to determine if a gallon of Swepco 201 will be enough.
Thanks for your reply!

I gallon of Swepco was plenty for my '74 911 with original 915 tranny. I believe I had about 1/2 qt left over when I was done filling it up...

3qts of Swepco 201 is the perfect amount. It can hold slightly more when cold, but 3qts will make it just under full when hot. Any more oil than that just causes more drag on the moving parts and risks overflow when hot...
