John Esposito (the guy you are thinking of) sent my rebuilt  overdrive
with a note that said using anything other than 30  weight
non-detergent oil in the gearbox would void the warranty.  That's  a
good enough reason for me to use it.

Esposito also rebuilt my  transmission and overdrive in 2002.  Same mention 
to me about the 30 weight  non-detergent.  Truthfully if Mr. Esposito said 
to use kangaroo urine  that's what I would use.  With just over 38,000 miles 
since the rebuild why  should I be looking for any other fluid.  Must 
mention that I change  fluid and clean filter every spring.
