10. Drive conservatively for the first 500-1000 miles for transmission break-in.
11. If you experience vibration at highway speeds, verify that there is no body
contact with the new transmission. If there is no contact, it may be necessary to
adjust your driveline angle. Much has been written about driveline angles and
how to determine them, and there is a lot of great information available online
from multiple websites. If you need further help with your driveline angle, call
Silver Sport Transmissions’ Customer Service at 888-609-0094.

SPECIFICATIONS AND MAINTENANCE
GM Synchromesh (part #88900333; formerly part #12345349) or Pennzoil
(part #3501) is the recommended fluid and will provide the best shift
quality. DEXRON/MERCON ATF (non-synthetic) and Mobil 1 ATF are the
ONLY other fluids approved by Tremec. The use of ANY other fluid will
void your warranty.
Silver Sport Transmissions recommends that the fluid be
replaced after the first 500-1000 miles of normal driving, and then every 30,000
miles thereafter. It is acceptable to use the less-expensive DEXRON/MERCON
fluid for the break-in period and then replace it with GM Synchromesh.
