Ok. A good friend has a GT350 on order and he doesn't care for the notchiness of stock, or the MT-82 in the GT. He hasn't driven mine, but I told him that SSII would help substantially, and an MGW if he really wants it to be great.No that transmission uses LV ATF :barf: The spec is for ATF (WSS-M97B44-D2)just like the GT500 which used a Tremec and required Mercon V ATF BG suggests Syncro Shift II. BG absolutely will not recommend an ATF for a manual gearbox. The Tremec 3160 in the Shelby is also in the Cadillac ATS which uses Syncro Shift, OE fill is Dexron VI ATF.
So you will never see a an ATF specification on the Syncro Shift Spec Sheet. Two different animals all together. Keep in mind that Syncro Shift came out due to market demand when manufacturers began using ATF in manuals. Yes ATF has great properties that make it add to efficiency of the system but not so ideal for an air cooled GEAR box. The reason newer manuals use similar materials for syncro's as auto's do for clutches is a universal fluid that keeps cost down.
