I would install flat washers and thread sealer on those intake bolts.

Fill the converter with as much fluid as you can keeping in mind that you have to rotate it sideways to install it.
Fill it flat and keep rotating it up until you get as much in there as you can.

I always replace o-rings when I reassemble.
