Re: TH350 / NP205 - ATF or 80w-90?

In researching this for the '74 K10 I had a few years ago (TH350/205 combo like yours) the best consensus I could come to is that the 205 is so impervious to any dismal matter like lubrication that if it's behind a stick shift, use gear oil, and if it's behind an automatic, use ATF. Either is very unlikely to be the reason a 205 fails.
