'79 TH350 Auto Fluid Type?
I will be replacing my Torque Convertor, Pan, Gaskets, and Filter. What is the stock type fluid used for a '79 TH350 Automatic? I'd like some idea's on a NON-synthetic performance ATF. I don't think there is a need for synthetic. I'm cruising, not racing.

Dexron III will work fine. That's what GM put in there.
Some of the so-called "heavy duty" fluids don't have the lubrication qualities that GM specs call for.
