Default Transylvania fluid

I believe my truck has the 5R110W TORQSHIFT in it. Just read that it takes MERCON SP automatic transmission fluid. What will happen if standard Mercon is used?

Possible issues, damaged transmission, drain the transmission pan & fill up with MERCON SP, if you can't find SP then MERCON LV !!!
