anyone use B&M Trick Shift Synthetic ATF
I saw some at a local part store and was wondering if I should use this, or use Mobil 1 Synthetic to fill my tranny. If anyone has any other suggestions, let me know. Thanks, Keith

Avoid Trick Shift. It's overpriced F-Type fluid. Synthetic would be much healthier.
Take care, ~Chris

My brothers camaro went 2 tenths faster with B&M trick shift in the tranny.
He ran 14.10's@96.7 for a whole year. Then he added the trick shift and ran a 13.94@98.18.

Chris, it's actually a new line of synthetic
They have a new line of B&M trick shift synthetic. Is it worth getting, or is it going to tear my tranny up? If this isn't worth using, what's best to use for a T-5? Thanks, Keith.

Straight from the TTC T-5 service manual:
"APPROVED LUBRICANT- Most T5 transmission models use DexronII ATF. Refer to the vehicle owner's manual or service manual for lubricant specifications. CAUTION: Do Not mix different brands or types of transmission lubricants." I've used Dyson's Synergen, Mobil 1 ATF, Redline MTL and Mobil 1 0W-30 (emergency). I've never noticed a difference in any one being better than the other. The motor oil even worked fine. Think I might try Royal Purple next time. Quote:
