is this good fluid?

I am having my shift kit modified for free tomorrow at my neighbors garage right after i get off work. So i had to go out and get fluid. I couldnt get to pepboys because the highway was backed up for miles and miles. I couldnt get to autozone because the bridge was closed. Just short of stabbing someone i went to the nearest parts store i could find. So i got this fluid, it was the only dexron III stuff there. Its from a company called Parts Master. I was wondering if this would be a good idea to use this fluid or if i should put off this whole thing so i have time to get some kinda better fluid. Or does it just not matter as long as its the right stuff?

I am a "brand name" sort of guy for vital fluids. Though it will probably be fine, as it is almost certainly made by one of the big refiners and packaged as a "private label" brand.

Re: is this good fluid?

thanks.. i left it to last minute and then was completely screwed by closed down bridges and evacuated towns in my area for the flooding. I had to buy this because we were going into my transmission to change up the transgo kit a little...OH BOY was that an interesting adventure. I have to go back to my friends garage to finish today. To start the pressure was over 150. And then to continue apparently the only thing installed from the transgo kit was the serperator plate which was the shop that installed it just drilled the **** out of...
