Valvoline Type FA or Carquest or Napa Type FA, made by Valvoline. Amsoil Super Shift if you want a synthetic.
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Just regular old Dexron II. From anywhere.
Can you still buy dexron 2? or do you mean dexron 3?
I use dexron 3 also.
dexron 3 more than exceeds any specs your mopar trans would have had initially.
Virtually any fluid will work in a caveman auto like a 727, so preference playa a big part.
Newer fluids (like atf +4) are simply better fluids, with better heat properties etc.. Type F is popular because some shift kits recommend it for firmer shifts. Even ford guys ditched it in 79, so I've never been a fan of it.
