Transmission fluid change


I have Series 5000 Borg Warner Velvet Drive transmissions on my two 350 Crusader engines on a 1997 325 Carver Aft Cabin. I am still in the process of going through the vessel which I purchased in May 18 and my plan is to refresh all the mechanicals for piece of mind and reliability. My transmission manual calls for 2 quarts of DEXRON II E for each transmission. A quick inquiry identifies that DEXRON II E is no longer manufactured. Some say DEXRON III is an equivalent replacement fluid. Has anyone substituted the fluid or have any other options. I also see some articles say DEXRON VI is also a replacement for the original recommendation too? Does anyone prefer a specific manufacturer of DEXRON? Any help is appreciated. This is strictly a maintenance issue as I have no transmission issues.
