The great debate (RP or M1) - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Getting ready to change my trans fluid (TR6060)...

Ive been using M1 for ever and been reading tons of positive reviews on the RP synchromax for the trans. Are there really any pros vs cons between M1 ATF or RP Synchromax?

There is a guy on this forum that tried both the RP and the M1 and he liked the M1 better. After reading that I tried the M1 myself and it does work well for improved synchro action. I also do know for a fact that M1 costs a LOT less.

I drained and refilled at about 1500 miles, used Royal Purple. Felt much better gear engagement. Raced a few times replaced again with Mobil 1 felt not as good as the Royal Purple but much better than stock. My experience others may not be the same. Hope this helps.
