PATC "raptor blood"?

quoted from their webpage:
"PATC Green Raptor Blood Racing Transmission Fluid. Raptor Blood RTF is formulated with High Tech Polymers, Synthetic Base Oils, Viscosity Stabilizers, and Extreme Pressure Additives. Only this formulation will provide heat protection under severe use. It also has the highest coefficient of friction (ability for clutches and bands to hold) available anywhere, yes anywhere! With Raptor Blood Full Synthetic Racing Transmission Fluid transmissions do not slip. Shipped in gallon size only."
...anyone ever used it?
did a quick search, but with no results. looks pretty interesting.
I have a rebuilt 700r4 with a 3200 street edge, 5 pinion planets, beast sunshell, corvette servo, 13 vane pump, boost valves, z pack clutches, 28 element sprag, kevlar band, painless lockup kit, derale deep pan, and a supercooler.
just want to keep it happy! hope to have it a long time.
thanks.

Re: PATC "raptor blood"?
i put it in my 700r4 when i upgraded it the second time in the car. i had it rebuild 20,000 ago with upgraded kevlar bands, extra friction plate in the 3-4, corvette servo, 13vein pump, b&M upshift valve, transgo shift kit, stronger converter, 24000 GVW super trans cooler
i then upgraded bc i wanted harder shifts, so i put in the 35%larger than vette billet servo, 50% larger than stock overdrive billet servo, mega boost valve, and low reverse boost valve, deep pan and then put the fluid in.... WOW really woke up the trans im very satisfied, as far as the fluid goes im not sure but B&M sells something like it by the quart and so do other companies... couldnt hurt. i can tell u that with a deep pan it will take more than 2 gallons... ouch 70$ i had to put some regular dextron in but hey! the raptor blood really is green lol
im gona upgrade it again for my 500hp 383 HSR thats goin in so im gona do the clutches again, the beast sun shell, and maybe the planets but they are much $$ right? where u get yours from and how much?

Re: PATC "raptor blood"?
haha yeah the stuff is pretty pricey huh?
i didn't buy any of the parts directly when i got my tranny rebuilt, just told him what i was looking for and he did it.
sounds like you got a nice setup! what clutches you going with?
anyone else have any input? specifically from changing ONLY the fluid, and not modifying the transmission at the same time?
firmer shifts, lower temp, etc?
thanks.
