Well thats what I wanted someone to say.
My thinking was only that perhaps MTF provides better protection in an ATX and/or would last longer in the ATX due to MTF's being made for the MTX with the MTX being prone to more extreme conditions than the ATX normally would be.
I was just exploring if this was some automotive trade secret like some other stuff I've heard before. I clearly understand that there is ATFs and MTFs for the reason that those two types of trannies exist, but I'm always looking for whats a lil betta even if I put myself at risk for looking like an ass in the process.

ATF is like 0-10w hydraulic fluidl if i'm not mistaken.. MT fluid is at least 75w. This would be a VERY bad thing to put into an Automatic. I would STRONGLY recommend against it.
