Figures it would deal with higher heat better. The trans in my diesel pick up has never been over 220 or since my buddy went thru it. He has suggested to me that if it ever sees 240* for any length of time to dump the fluid. Pretty sure he said that 300* or so is normally the temp at which it will start melting seals. Don't even want to think about what would happen at 475*...
The expense is why Doug, my buddy, has suggested staying away from it.
How often do you dump the fluid in the race car? The truck? With my buddy owning a shop he does not really worry to much about the life span of his own stuff. He did tell me that if a customer wants the good juice he will gladly use it. Thanks for the info...
Thanks for your input. When the year gets here that I get to the car I will be using synthetics in it. I agree, with the amount of $$ you have tied up in this stuff trying to save a few $$ on it's blood is silly. I kind of look at stuff with the thought of in the big picture of things we spend a small fortune on our toys, what is that extra $20 (or whatever it is) going to add to the bottom line of things.
