Does Dex 6 shift a bit softer? I noticed mine was shifting a little less firm after I change my direct clutches & servo since changing to Dex 6.
I used a Sonnax super hold servo & changed my directs to a 7 clutch setup from David.
 
I run Dex 6 in mine now, and I find no difference in shift quality from the Dex 3. My trans is bone stock with 35K on it, btw. It shifts nice and firm in all gears.
 
I to havent noticed any soft shit, Dave said use 6, filled it a quart over as instructed and its been shifting perfect for the last 2 1/2 years. Perhaps you are nearing a larger problem with your tranny after working on it.
 
Dex 6 here as well, trans was rebuilt at the same time. so I cant really compare. shifts are firm.
