AMSOIL MTF 5W-30 is the proper Fluid for the Honda Manual Trans. MTG is the 75W-90 for other applications such as EVO's or Dodge NV 4500 transmissions and others calling for a Gear Lube Type Lubricant. MTF and MTG are not compatible and should never be mixed.

Can anyone confirm this?

F stands for Fluid.... G for Gear Lube with AMSOIL...
The following Link is to a Study of Gear Lubes and was performed by Several Independent Testing Facilities which are ISO Accredited..

What most people don't realize is that there is No Governing Body for Gear Lubes. I could almost bottle some Maple Syrup, use a little sulpher for sniff factor and sell it for Gear Lube... Of course, a good Maple Syrup is way more expensive than Gear Lube and tastes better on my pancakes.
