How was the fluid you drained originally? Was it dark with metal flakes? A lot of times transmission fluid that has not been changed in a while or is in poor condition is actually whats making your transmission still shift good. You most likely have a 700r4 which is not a good transmission in stock form. I would check to make sure the fluid is at the proper level.
