Jake- sorry just saw your question!! I'm running just generic Prestone DOT 3 fluid. I was going to go to DOT 4, but was about to take the trip to Myrtle, and didn't want to risk anything new, especially on brakes.
So I did get the rear end gears installed! The car definitely has a little more pickup, and doesn't show the weight as bad out of corners. I did develop a problem after install though.....looked a little something like this:

Yeah, leaky pinion seal. Took it back, got it all fixed, and she made the trip up just fine! I also swapped out the speedometer gear to correct my speedometer, took around 15 minutes total (thanks Matt Walker for the help!).
She is very happy being in Harrisonburg and is currently hanging out in the garage in North :thumbup:.
