Tranny Help! Fluid problem

Stock Tranny.

Ok, first of all i notice every time I would come to a stop the truck would vibrate down shifting into 1st gear. It would also do it leaving 1st gear. I then went and got a oil change and the guy said I didn't have any fluid on the stick. He then filled it to the line on the stick.(2quarts) He also said he checked for leaks and there is none. I notice the tranny shifting fine after that.

Well a week later, I go to the track to race and I figured I would check it again. You wouldn't believe down 1 quart. So I put a quart in. This is when I got worried and the next day took it to my speed shop. He checks it, guess what, down 2 quarts. What can be the problem? My shop doesn't know what is wrong and it is still not leaking. And to add to it my mechanic checked the oil filler and notice extensive blow by coming from the filler. Smoking like a chimney.

Any help (greg, sal?????)

Look inside your inspection cover on the bell and see if it's wet, and also yuou cooler fittings away from the tranny, up around the radiator.
