Ok, I stand corrected.

Almost all GM cars and light trucks state in the owners manual 100,000
miles for trans. service with filter, "under normal driving conditions". It also gives a 50,000 mile service interval "under severe driving conditions". If you live in California your driving conditions meet severe criteria. Here is the criteria.
• In heavy city traffic where the outside temperature regularly reaches 90°F (32°C) or higher.


• In hilly or mountainous terrain.


• When doing frequent trailer towing.


• Uses such as found in taxi, police or delivery service.

Allison transmissions the service interval for spin on filter and fluid change is every 50,000 miles " under normal driving conditions".
Every 25,000 miles, under the same severe driving conditions mentioned above.

Ruh-Roh. Well, the first time was because I snapped off the tailshaft section so it kinda drained itself. I think when it was put back together they used synthetic atf or something like that. I noticed it wasn't as smooth (originally it used whatever GM recommended). So I changed that with what an old timer petro chemical engineer, and owner of Go Pure Power recommended. I think it was 50/50 90/80w gear oil (had some special cert can't remember) and non-synthetic auto fluid. Well hot damn old timer, it did shift smoother and quieter.

You really need to get off this organic oil high. Run organic for 6 months and watch as the tar spills out of your oil pan, run synthetic for 6 months and you'll feel like you're throwing away perfectly good oil when you drain it.

Do you really think refined goo from the ground is going to work better than something that was chemically engineered in a lab for a specific purpose?

FYI, all T56 transmissions run ATF Dexron 4. I use Redline.
