I'd use Mercon V.It's a synthetic type design to eliminate the convertor clutch chatter issue common to the early 4R70Ws and AODEs. It's called out in one of the TSBs, but Ford says it will damage the seals in pre 96 trannys. Others have used it with no issues. $3.95 a quart X 12.
If you are afraid to use it, use Merc III
