transmission oil change @1200miles question

[arsenalrocks]

I am changing the tranny fluid at 1200miles. I have 2 questions basically

1. is the OEM ford ATF full synthetic or not?
2. there are lots of other oils that meet the ford standard which is Mercon LV, what are some of the best full synthetic oils available? I heard about amsoil a lot.

anyone had any experience with that amsoil fluid?

thanks

Tremec specifies Dexron II, Dexron VI AFT for the 3160 transmission, 5.7 pints. I would not use anything different.
Been using their recommended fluid in Tremec transmissions for over 20 years and never had a problem.

He said transmission fluid, not engine oil. But the factory trans fluid probably is just as good as anything you can replace it with. I wouldn't touch it.
