Lucas Racing Semi-Synthetic ATF?

I know that you are not supposed to use synthetic tranny fluid in the 4l60e. This is semi-synthetic racing atf tranny fluid made by Lucas Oil. I was just wanting some opinions on how good it is or if i shouldnt use it. The good thing about it is i can get as much as i want for free. It says its made to help with trannys with high pressure and to help with cooling.

Thanks
Brandon

A good quality atf will be fine. Don't waste the money on that.

Free oil is great except transmissions don't come free. I personally have been using regular dexron type oil in units for the better part of 17 years. I honestly can not say that cheap oil has made a unit fail. Just my opinion but everyone has one.

Well if the semi synthetic is gonna mess my tranny up i'm not gonna run it but if u guys dont really see a problem with it then i will. I like it because its FREE but like Vince said trannys are not and i've been through about 4 now.
