Is this transmission fluid a good full synthetic transmission fluid to use even though it says Dexon VI - Mercon LV? for a rebuilt TH400? On the back it does say that this is compatible with all GM Hydra-Matic trannys and I know the TH400's use Dexron VI. Ive done some googling and see that the Mercon LV fluid is NOT the same as Dexron VI. it seems like a lot of fluid I've looked at have been the Dexon VI - Mercon LV.
1. Am I able to use this fluid without any issues? or should I be looking for exclusively Dexron VI?
all brands-grades of DEXRON ATF are backwards-compatible; and have been since that fluid's inception. This is readily researchable via wiki and other sources
All that is rather well-known.

This is the same stuff I used in my TH400. Works fine for my car.
