If your not running a trans brake. If you have a reasonably sized cooler. If your trans was assembled with correct clearance. Then any fluid will work. Doug Doug, what brand would you recommend for a tranny that has a break/race clutches/aluminum drums that Rock auto sells? I currently run JR1 synthetic. But in the past I’ve run Walmart Dexron with zero issues. Doug

I use Type F. For the abuse my transmission has seen (4 digit HP in a nearly 2 ton car), it's been great.

I have been using Jeg's brand "quick shift". I am sure it is just Type F private labeled for Jeg's. I get it in one gallon jugs for an ok price when I have a discount code and free shipping. My local part stores either do not have anything but synthetic, OR only stock 1 qt or 2 quarts of fluid on the shelves anymore. Who the heck only uses 1 or 2 quarts of trans fluid?

I guess the quarts are just there for topping off. They want you to buy $$ synthetic for fill ups. Same thing for engine oil. The only conventional engine oil at the local O'Reilly's is quarts of their store brand. And forget VR1. They only ever have 20W50. I don't own a blown dragster.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

Has always been the least expensive place for me and we don't pay shipping. Just one Transynd 668. You can get it through Oreilly or probably any parts store as well.
