Message: [QUOTE="Wayne, post: 1293067, member: 863"] Sp was "dropped" in favor of LV. You can still get it, but no point really. Both are a full synthetic, more resistant to breaking down in high heat and time. Ford did it to further idiot proof the trannies because most people don't service their stuff as they should. When I installed trannies at Elite, it was always generic mercon5. Never had an issue with the fluid. We stressed regular fluid services, and it worked fine. I changed my red truck's fluid every 10k miles because of the way I abused it, and never had a fluid related issue. That being said, I now build my own, using the same types of clutches used by Suncoast, Elite, and probably everybody else. I use, and recommend LV because it's full synthetic, lasts longer, and takes heat better. Maybe there's some property the 5 has to make it better for a specific builder's desires, but it's beyond me.
