You don't even need to use the search button. Just looking the the threads made in the last few days and you can find all the info you need. Or look in the FAQ section. It does get old seeing the same thing asked 3 times a week though.

dexron 3, 4qts
the material in some of the T56 parts don't like synthetic
with that said people run just about anything in them
My $02 is follow the manufacturers advice...the sticker is on the DS of the T56

Change the oil yearly with 4 qts of Dextron III normal use, more often if abused. Do-not use synthetic trans fluid unless you have changed all the paper syncronizer pads to carbon fiber or they will self-destruct. Also the fork shift pads and shifter fulcrum should be changed over to Bronze from the factory plastic. the extreemly powerful detergents in synthetic tend to degrade the plastic over time.
