If mine was even slightly over filled it wouldn't shift right when cold. It
seemed to do best just under the top mark (of course it's hard to be that
precise).

On mine which has the "new style" dipstick:  cold was 126mm or about
5" from the tip of the dipstick.  Hot it was 2" which is a little
over the top mark.  Maybe that will get you in the ballpark.  (That's
the way I got it back from the rebuilder, I know it shouldn't be
above the top mark... and it's going back today because it still is
not shifting right when cold.)
