Default 1993 transmission fluid leak

ive got a 1993 xlt 3.0 v6 five speed, and shes leaking tranny fluid and lots of it. Started driving it a little bit after installing entire new clutch, and in the maybe 300 miles i have driven her she leaked 2.5 out of 3 quarts. im thinking its happening while i drive because there are no puddles of fluid in my parking spot. any ideas are helpful!

The last sentence very nicely describes what happens when the neoprene shift rail plugs leak. Many a person has ran those dry, wasted a tranny, and didn't see puddles on the ground where they had been parking.
