14 2 SS 6 SP, Redline D4 VS Amsoil Torque Drive VS Amsoil Signature series

Hi, I am probably going to change the Trans fluid next time I change the oil, the car is at 14 K and I am not having any issues, I have done a lot of reading but most of the threads are old, Just wondering if there are any new thoughts on this. I see Tremec makes their own fluid as well but it is sold out all over the place.


Amsoil Torque drive vs Amsoil Signature series? Not sure which of these two are better.



I typically run Amsoil products but Redline seems to have a following. Thanks


P.S 4 Qts should do it?

Redline here. Just my personal choice.
Amsoil in the engine, as well.

Spoke to Amsoil today and they recommend the Signature series Multi vehicle ATF over the Torque Drive, The Rep I spoke with said they designed the Torque Drive more towards bigger trucks but they list it since it does meet Dextron 3 Specs.

Irregardless of the fluid I recommend installing the Jennedy transmission dip stick.

I changed it today, Used Amsoil Signature Series Multi Vehicle, the fluid that came out looked and smelled fine, I added it until it started to come out, I did not wait for it to stop coming out before I plugged it. The top Fill plug released quite a bit of air when I loosened it. I Honestly don't notice any change in shifting. I was not having any issues to start with.
