Amalie oil contingency
 
Amalie has a new contingency guy to talk to you if you have money coming. He is Robert Nyegard and can be reached at robertn@amalie.com You can qualify for the contingency program by purchasing $150 of product. You can do that thru Amazon. At least that is how it worked in 2023.

I use Amalie Type F trans fluid, Amalie was the only company that didn't respond last year for contigency.
I am told they make it for Motorcraft. Joel on Joy is a Type F only guy.

They don't make Allison's Transynd trans fluid nor the Maxima oil I use and in over 3 decades, I don't know one racer nor engine builder that uses anything with their name on it.

That wont stop me from claiming contingency from them if they offer it. They are not holding a gun to your head saying you have to use their products in your race car. Put it in your kids 2012 Kia. Many Stock SS racers are running 20w 50 racing oil now anyway to kill a few tenths. I bet they make some fine thick stuff. LOL

I use it but I am just a beat off wannabe stock eliminator racer not as smart as 1320 racer just trying to support sponsors that support us.

I, and several other Comp racers I know run their Type F trans fluid with great results. Looks the same coming back out as it did when new, plus all the clutches, bands, gears, etc. look pristine. Like you, I run Maxima every where else on the car but give Amalie props for how well their trans fluid works. I have ran other brands with a much higher cost that did not perform as well.

There is no better trans fluid than Allison's Transynd, try it and you'll be glad you did.

I ran transynd for years, and I agree its a superior fluid. Joel is pretty adamant about running Type F, and Eddie Horensky is also, so I switched over. I have my trans gone thru every year and it still has the same clutches from 300 runs ago when we put the pro trans gears in it. So so far so good.

Dwayne my trans in both my cars get freshened every other season, with north of 400 passes and they always look brand new. Keep in mind with the dragster, that's across the line burnouts, 5200rpm launches and sub 1 second 60 foots. Further, with Transynd, the fluid temp runs cooler by at least 10 degrees.

That’s 200 passes. You only run 1/8 mile. 😂

Exactly!

He doesn’t race class.
Pro trans does not like Synthetic fluid. Transmission tolerance and clutch material dictate fluid spec.
These aren’t bracket cars! I cannot see your reply just what others are saying.. so don’t bother .

I've used Amalie oil in our daily drivers for years and they're still on the road today. They also package oil for several companies, which would be interesting to know.
