Ryan,......If you can't find it in your local parts stores,...I know CA is tough getting stuff off the local part store shelf,...have you tried your friendly GM dealer, or Corvette specialty shops......all else fails, have Keisler send you some,....don't sub anything else,.....you'll void any warranty you have, if you have problems

Autozone stores usually carry a small inventory of Syncromesh spec fluid - at least in my area. I believe its Penzoil brand

I would stick with syncromesh, either GM or equivalent. I called about fluid and even though the tech sheet says ATF would work, thats only there as a last resort.

Pennzoil Syncro ~ $7 instead of the $20+ for the GM stuff.
