I actually do drive the car all winter.

I spoke with the Redline guys and they confirmed that the 'Power Steering' fluid by Redline is Dexron III rated. As you noted Chris, it has a higher viscosity. They recommended the D6 ATF as a more appropriate substitute. I just swapped my reservoir fluid for the D6, let it run for a bit, and then pumped out and refilled the reservoir again. Figure that should be a good enough fluid swap for now.
