If you mean the Dow 33 it should work it's pretty much the same stuff just not as thick. I think they just recommend that one so you don't have to lube it as much.
Dow 55 is Shocker lube. It's the pinkish stuff if I recall correctly.
I personally took it off and put on some slick Dow 33 lube that I use on my DM5 because I was having BAD bolt stick problems out of the box. Once I put it on and bumped up my dwell a bit, it worked fine!
