2021 Camaro LT1

Hey guys so I have 2021 camaro LT1 10 speed and I wanted to change the rear differential oil and trans oil and I can't quite find what kind of trans fluid will be the best for the car. Do you guys have any recommendations?
For rear differential oil I went with ACDelco GM Original Equipment 10-4034 Dexron LS 75W-90 Gear Oil
For trans is ACDelco GM Original Equipment 10-9395 Dexron VI Automatic Transmission Fluid?
I really wanted to try amsoil atf but almost every forum I read some say yes some say no only GM stuff.
I would love to hear some suggestions

Thank you so much

As long as the oil meets GM specs, you're good.

I have royal purple in my M6 and GM in the rear.

The only "sticky situation" is engine oil. It has to be dexos rated. Amsoil is supposed to meet that rating, but it isn't officially "approved" therefore it could void the warranty.

Trans fluid for the 10L80 is Dexron ULV PN 19352619, not Dexron V1

Also do you guys know what is the trans fluid capacity because I want to replace the oil I read this

Capacity: 10 speed With O Cooler 10L80 Total Fill 12 quarts.
Capacity: 10 speed With Cooler 10L80 Total Fill 13.7 quarts.
Capacity: 8.7 quarts Initial Fill.

I am guessing the 2021 LT1 does not have a cooler so it needs 12 quarts?

That's kind of annoying. I was looking at Amsoil too.

So what else out there is "officially approved" aside from Mobil 1 ESP?

Motor oil? Anything Dexos 2. 5-30 0r 0-40.

If you drive like grandma 5-30 is good. If you like to drive hard, or race, I'd go 0-40.
Amsoil is "supposed" to meet GM specs, but it isn't licensed so you might have a warranty issue if it ever gets down to it..
