Improvements in shifting ? Comments and feedback would be appreciated. Thanks. Captain Bart 1999 Black/Midnight Blue SVT #1949/2760

Even the $$$ honey colored fluid needs the FM and doesn't work/protect as well as the Mobil 1 (which is a lot cheaper) 2000 SVT #674 - Check it out! Whoever coined the phrase; "If it ain't broke; don't fix it" ~ Just doesn't get it...
