After almost 2 years, I'm getting close to starting my 50 Super 8. I drained the ATF and cleaned the pan and filter while waiting for a rebuilt water pump. What kind of fluid do these transmissions use. Also, what kind of light bulbs are used for the turn signals and parking lights. I checked mine and one has offset pins and the other doesn't. Thanks for all your help.

Dexron/Mercon III, the reason that I did not go with the type F is that I have been told the Dexron is closer to the Type A than Type F, with type F being a bit thicker. There is also the concern of the bleed down orfice on the direct drive of not releasing the direct (lockup) drive on a quick stop.

Also using Dexron/Mercon III in the PS pump with no problems at all.
