Yes I know this has been beat to death, and everyone runs ATF. The reason I'm asking, is I was getting ready to fill the trans after the swap and I checked the book to see what the capacity was. The book said, manuals built in 87 used 85-90w. I happened to notice the build date, and the tranny is stamped 12/21/87. So....ATF or gear oil? For what it's worth, gear oil came out of it. Given that the upper rad hose was the original hose....I'm guessing this is the first time the tranny fluid has ever bee changed.
