I got a reply back from DSI International telling them that the Lubrimaxx was used so if you're interested, this is what they wrote:
The transmission was tested and validated with Castrol TQ95. It would be the only oil we would recommend for use in this transmission.
Other brands of oil may perform as well in this application, however they were never tested, so we cannot be sure of their performance.
Friction modifiers used in ATF oils can change the way the transmission clutches perform in different scenarios (and at different temperatures). This could be why different oil perform differently in automatic transmission.
We would recommend filling with TQ95, and access the transmission performance again after a week or 2 of driving.

I guess that those of us with Classic Falcons (0r Maseratis or Ssypong's ) running BTR we better stock up on retailers still have on their shelves.
