Fork Oil ...

[Nomak]

I weigh about 160 lbs I dont plan on puttin any preload atleast not immediately so do I put in 140 ml or 350ml? thats a big discrepancy in the 2 suggested volumes

[Jazzzzz]

140mm, not ml - 140mm is the distance from the top of the fork to the level of the oil when the fork is collapsed and has no springs/spacers in it

I gave up.. [...] I have jerked, pulled, and even hammered on them with a rubber mallet..
Those fork seals are not coming out..

Did you ever undo the bolt at the bottom end of the forks?  That's got to come out before the sliders will pull free, bringing the seals along with them.

Check out this thread to experience the initial frustrations, and then final successes, of others.  And the variations on a cool homemade tool that made it possible.

Well now..
Thats something I hadn't read about..

I filled the forks with used motor oil and was trying to compress them and blow the seals out...

I wasn't having any luck..

Stupid question: Is it 350ml(or 380 or...) per fork?  If so I need to go buy another bottle of fork oil...

Yes.

350 ml/fork is if you have progressive spings its 382 ml with stock factory springs (Clymer Manual)
