If anyone is looking for this and doesnt know where to find it, Autozone carries it for about 6.8x a qt. Its Penzoil made. HTH!

Many people here are running synchromesh with great results (smoother shifts,) about 50% of people prefer it over dino dex III... I've got it in my tranny, i've just never driven it yet

syncromesh is what liberty recommends for pro-shifted M6's. I swapped from ATF to syncromesh and it shifted MUCH smoother.

Welcome to the internet

I've read a lot of good things about synchromesh, and that's what's going in my tranny next.
