Im not questioning anybody im just curious about the fluid im using im my performabuilt level 2 haven't had any problems with it but i don't want any either


does anyone use it? a friend had to replace his X brand transmission and they told him it was because the synthetic fluid (dont know what brand fluid he was using), that's where i started thinking if i should change my fluid or not

please give me your opinions, every opinion is welcome

 

What did Frank tell you to use???

 

I don't remember he telling me what to use, now I asked him and he said it was ok to use synthetic but FLT just told a friend not to use the same fluid, I'm not questioning frank, just asking what the rest use

thank you

 

FLT told me not to use syn in my Level7, so I don't If Frank says it's OK to use syn in his builds I guess that's another story though

 

Either Chevron DEX 3 or Mobil DEX 3

 

man im running that same fluid in my 80e right now. even though i only have maybe 30 miles on swap.

all ive heard is the full syn is to thin and can result in letting it slip. and dex 3 and thicker.

 

I would pretty much go with what the builder says is ok to use

 

has anyone ever heard of using type f? a mechanic buddy of mine said that's what he uses in all his swaps but i doubt him...

 

like 10 ten years ago i was told the same thing by a guy when i was trying to buy some b&m trick shift for my olds . and he said use type F its the same as the trick shift . so thats what i did lol i was 18 nothing bad happened to the trans it shifted great and still does . it has a th350 in it .

 

I have been running amsoil in my performabuilt going on 4 years.
