ATX Fluid. Recommendations?

[EthoX]

Just got a 1994 SHO-ATX, in very good condition. I want to change out the ATX-Fluid. I am thinking of putting in it L.E.(Lubrication Engineers>http://www.le-inc.com/), but unfortunately they do not have a ATF-Fluid that is a "F-Type". But I do highly recommend there oils,5W-30 & 15W40. So what ATF-Fluids do you all think are good, especially Synthetic. And how often should the ATX-Filter be changed out, if this vehicle has one.

Hello, and welcome to shoforum.com. My advice is to order some redline atx fluid from Summitracing.com. Get the type 3 atx fluid as it is the most stable under high temp conditions. The tranny fluid filter is in the pan , and would be a pretty major undertaking in and of itself. I would wait until a rebuild is necessary to do that. Just keep fresh fluid in there every 10k miles or so, and all should be good especially since you have a 94. Good luck.

Hey Jeremy how many quarts of the Redline is needed for an ATX?

I bought 15 just to be sure that I had enough, but I think you could get by with about 12 if you wanted to save a little money...
