some of the better syn fluids can take more heat than the seals.heat is not want you want in the 200,with the calibrations and clutch size.Yea I know some, not all, of the tranny guys are saying to run synthetic fluid in their units, just curious, if any of you guys happen to talk to your builder, ask them exactly why they recommend it
It's going to take a little more than an additive for a 200 to live behind a high horsepower 109 that's being raced and street drivenThat's why I use the platinum additive.
that's the reason for the its up to the builders response,now you may feel that way and if your a builder its your right too but there are other builders that set the trans up and gets the results they wants using the syn fluid.but I don't like any of my customers to run synthetic fluid in my hi perf. trannys even though that's what most of the newer trans. and manufacturers are running.
It that fluid slightly thicker then regular ATF and red in color? I ask as the trans in this car has a fluid of that nature. I've heard of using 50-50 tractor fluid and ATF and that was the first thing that came to mind when I dropped the pan.
