ATF choices/ converter draining

[Stephen Bigelow]

An upcoming trans swap forces me to choose a trans fluid. Checked out the Mobil 1 bottle on the shelf at the local WallyMart, and it indicates it is "100% synthetic....exclusive of carrier oil"

Uh-huh.

Nothing mentioned about this at the Mobil site.

It's ~$7.50 a litre. Perhaps a better chooce would be the Amsoil ATF? Even at double the price?

Any thoughts/experience of one vs. the other? I'm a very satified user of the Amsoil motor oil and filter, btw.

Trans will be resealed before installation...unclear whether converter will be drained. Anyone ever done it? Bentley is a little vague on the procedure...at least to me.

TIA
