What we need now is a more detailed spec sheet on the MTX-75 lube requirements that goes into detail on additive requirements and limits.
If ANYONE from FMC would be happy to oblige us that would be great! Then we can determine any and all fluids that are suitable.

Looks more and more like using straight synthetic motor oil would be just as good too!

...I can't oblige on that one.I have the Ford specs
and myself and my contacts within the auto industry
have our own 'professional code' between each other
and a trust built up over many years.If a company ,say
Redline wish to be an 'authorised' supplier of lube
for the MTX75 I'd suggest they contact Transmission
Engineering in Germany who will advise them of
specs,test perameters etc...if they submit test data
then they have a good chance of being authorised...at
a price.As to other aftermarket suppliers who 'say'
that their lube meets Ford 'WSD-M2C200-C'...I'd be
intersted to see their proof of being 'authorised by
Ford'...or do we assume they have been certified and
passed all the Ford tests etc from a lube
submission...
