Default Tranny filter

Hey all,
I'm planning on changing the filter in my tranny (727), and i was thinking about filling it with B&M's trick shift fluid. This might sounds like a silly question, but i've never changed a tranny filter so: Will I notice any differences in tranny performance will the filter change and diferent fluid??

thanks in advance!
Steve

The old trick used to be to use type F which is what I still use. You may see some improvement but not likely.
I made a drain plug for my convertor to change it.
I remember I had a 66 satellite (383) with over 100k on it that would chirp 2nd gear.

In my opinion, no, but opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one. Specially if it's a stock unit.

As I recall, the B&M trick shift is nothing but overpriced Type F, with the B&M logo.
