I am going to change the fluid on my 3650 this weekend.

I wanted something non-synthetic and was told to try an ATF.

Have any of you tried Hurst Hot Shift or B&M Trick Shift?

If so, opinions?

Or other recommended brands?

Plz don't. They use additives that no transmission needs and their resistance to erosion and Forced pressure+heat tests rank the 2nd to lowest and lowest of 12. If i find the independent test .pdf ill post it.
