My 7 speed is great, but a bit balky when cold. I called Red Line and they recommended AT4. Your thoughts? Thanks

Nature of the beast. I put Redline AT4 in mine--small improvement.

Well I always wonder why GM did not put the A4 in the tranny to begin with. You know it has to help somewhat. When I put Redline MYL in my 69 four speed many years ago it made quite a difference.
