WalMart Type F will get the job done. If you transbrake you will need to change fluid often. I put a trans temp in one time, you only need it for one race , after that you KNOW what is happening and when. On the button it can go up 100 degrees a second, will drop instantly when button is released. No trans brake, never a problem with temp if unit is healthy.

Was out today, had a senior moment, and went into a Wallymart to get some type F, going to change the filter on the D100 this weekend. Totally forgot about the "black Friday" thing, I was early for that to start but they were getting ready, place was crawling with early loiterers and LOTS of employees. OH, and they had 7 qts of type F, at 3.48/qt. I was looking for gallon jugs, a couple of 'em. nada. And I certainly wasn't expecting it to be 3.48 /qt either! I guess it's been a while since I bought any house brand stuff, was expecting maybe 1.50-2.00 ea. Going back to my regular jobber, and get name brand for probably just a little more.
It takes gasoline to interest me.

The backwards compatibility issue with ATF+4 has a lot to do with dealers only having to stock one fluid.

Depends on the intended usage and the ATF+4 is "superior" in lube properties but not friction properties that many desire.
Non-lockup 3-speeds don't need the lube properties.

Since you've set yourself up as the top expert on the subject - then use whatever you want. It's no skin off my back, and there's no need to be defensive about it. My only reason for saying anything was to participate in the conversation and bring some reference material in that others might find useful - or not. If that is problematic, then perhaps we need to take this off-line.
Have a good evening.
