I use synthetic gear w/limited slip additive in the rear. I've left the factory fluid in the trans.

In the trans use a dextron III(dextron II will work also, the III is just the newer version, they don't make the dextron II anymore FYI) Sounds weird to run ATF in the trans but that what you half to do. Also if you want run 1/2 -1 qt of limited slip additive in it too. The limited slip helps the t56 go into gear easier. That i was told by a guy that worked developed the t56 for the viper in 1992, and he knows this tranny like no one else!
