I have never used it but I know guys who sware by it (They tow) they like B&M Trick Shift. I want to use it in my 150 when I get some money. I heard its really good stuff. I have also been told Royal Purples 'Synchro Max' Manual Transmission Fluid, is great in the transfer case.

I cant really say for sure I am only 19 sir, but I think synthetic is the way to go. Or just go by route of a name brand tranny fluid. My understanding is very little in this subject, I was just relaying to you what was told to me. I have no experince with it. But sythetic always seems the way to go.

All those brands are great used BM trickshift, Redline, Mobile 1, Amsol, Penzoil.
You could even look at synthetic GM specifications Devron VI,
5 gallons goes for $130 delivered
Royal Purple seems to be the latest craze.
On the west coast LUCAS oil is touted to be a great product.

Lucas has a agent in it that makes it sticky but once it warms up its just like regular gear oil (I'm talking the rear end gear oil) Take one of those lucas oil gear things put it in the sun and let it get nice and hot, and then see if its still all sticky and stuff. When I have done it, its not, its like regular oil. But I want to try the B&M Trick Shift in my Tranny and Royal Purple 'Synchro Max' in my transfer case.

I ran the B&M on a GM 700R4 tranny with double clutch kit hooked up to a 500HP 450 ftlbs stroker engine and the fluid worked great.
