Derby guys used to use type F in "our" transmissions. Always said
they'd "grip" better. I don't know if that's folklore or
fact.
Very true. Trans guys I know say that F-type was formulated when Ford
had an abnormally high failure rate of their transmissions due to clutch pack
failure. The Ford trans couldn't handle the torque. The F-type provided a
large amount of the friction additive. That is why all 300 club trans rebuilders
recommend it due to the additional clutch disk and quicker shifts provided when
a true 300 trans is rebuilt correctly. I have been using F-type in all of my
Torq flites for a number of years with no issues.
