So I am going to replace my transmission oil, and on the dipstick cover it tells me to use Mercon SP. And I already bought Mercon V. So I read that I cannot use the Mercon V. I watched a YouTube video and he used Mercon V on his truck. I am in a pickle because I already drained my transmission fluid and mixed it with my other oils.

No, you need to use the SP for your transmission.

That is required due to the heat build up.
