Transmission fluid
Anyone running Dexron VI in there 700r4? I just changed my fluid and installed Dex VI and the shifts seem much softer but smooth and quick. Just wondering if this is normal? The Dexron I used is Valvoline synthetic Dexron VI.

Re: Transmission fluid
It has been a month already, like I said the shifts seem smooth yet fast compared to Dexron III, this is in my TCI 700r4 street fighter transmission. It use to have a real firm shift with Dex III and with this fluid it is shifting like my wifes 4l60e in her Bravada almost Cadillac smooth even though it has a shift kit in it...just wondering if I should change the fluid back to Dexron III. I Do not notice it slipping at all but these real smooth shifts have me conserned that maybe it will start down the road or is it just how this fluid feels?
