What type of tranny do i have?
I have a 96 Z28 with a 6-speed manual. I've heard that my tranny was a T-56 and a T-5, or is it something else? And why does the plate on the transmission tell me to use Dexron III ATF?

In Case anyone else thinks im stupid. Lets explain to the "old" and so called "wise" that ATF means automatic transmission fluid, and i was wondering why its recomended in a MANUAL transmission. Maybe the old quote's got it backwards, huh?

Even my 1985 t-5 in the Z28 calls for ATF in the case.. proabbly to avoid problems of people throwing oil into AT's because they misread a label.. so they just made it standard that you put ATF into all transmissions.. I do suppose they should just call it "Transmission fluid" now since it is used in both types
