Just wondering if anyone knows what kind of fluid to use in my 6 speed transmission gear oil or auto tranny fluid? I have heard tons of different things. HELP!!!

Tremec says to fill it till fluid(they recommend Dexron II, but upgrades are fine) just starts dripping from the fill hole. If overfilling works, great... I'm a little surprised it doesn't leak out though. I used Synchromesh in mine.

^ I wonder what the differences are between Dex 3 vs Dex 6? When the bottle for Dex 6 fluid says expressly NOT FOR VEHICLES THAT REQUIRE DEX III/ VEHICLES MADE BEFORE 2005 I wonder why you would choose that fluid? When I read that I passed and looked for the Dex III only. The warning is saying the two are not equivalent...

I did the fill through the shifter hole thing for a while until I spilled some oil on my carpet doing it...then I bought one of these:

Makes filling through the side fill hole much easier and less messy.
