Trans-Synd 
I purchase that by the barrel at work. It's factory spec for Allison automatics used in class 8 big rigs. I've often wondered how it would perform in smaller units.

I think it's the opposite, in a race 727 ATF+4 works OK because of the higher line pressure.

I use john deer hy-gard purple label in my stuff. MAKE sure if you use it, you have a brass filter NOT a cotton one.
Why? I run john deere hy-gard and run cotton filter because of my aluminum drums. I have no problems.
To these people running blankets and getting over 230* I would look in to your convertor. I would run a 8" 4800 stall convertor and stroud blanket and would see 180* at end of pass of trans brake.
67dartgt how long have you been running the cotton filter/w aluminum drums? Cause I also run the aluminum drums in my trans and am considering the hy-gard fluids......
