Amsoil recommends an automatic transmission fluid for the gen 1: AMSOIL Signature Series Multi-Vehicle 100% Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid
I even called them to confirm

But for the gen 2: AMSOIL 75W-90 Manual Transmission & Transaxle Gear Lube

Has anyone used AMSOIL automatic transmission fluid in their gen 1?

The Gen 1s had different blocker rings in the synchros and require a Dexron III or better ATF fluid. The Gen 2s have carbon rings and can work well with GL4 multigrade synthetics for track or warm weather use.
