Re: Transmission oil
Dexron III...that's all you'll need, although some would recommend Type F, just don't use B&M Trick Shift....I recently did a fluid change on mine and all they had at the store was B&M Trick Shift, well I can tell ya i'm not happy with the performance of my 400 on that stuff so I need to drain it again and get back to my Dex III.

Re: Transmission oil
I would just use dextron III, using type F would burn a transmission up. Some people were lucky and says it mak3es the shifts firmer but id rather make the transmission built to shift harder rather than the fluid doing so.
