    Tremec fluid type

    Wondering what people are running in their TKO's and 3550's? I have heard MerconV ATF, and GM Synchromesh. My 3550 had Amsoil synthetic manual trans lube and it was pretty nice shifting for having a jacked up top plate BUT I don't like Amsoil products much so I am hesitant to put that back in it..

    Has anyone ever run Royal Purple SynchroMax in a TKO based trans? I have it in my T5 and it's great..

    I have royal purple in my 3550 but if you go to the tremec seminar they say absolutely no to synthetic fluids

      I think it shifts fine, supposedly it hurts long term durability though

              It doesn't matter what we suggest, you'll fuck it up and do something completely different anyways
              Dear Government, eventually the people with money will tell you to fuck off, and stop paying for those that don't work
