Do all the rubber parts in your system specifically say on them or on the packages they came in that they are OK for Silicone fluid?

If you don't know then stick with the regular stuff.

I worked in a restoration shop for a while, and a customer insisted on using silicone fluid in his old car. We did do a complete brake rebuild, stainless sleeved cylinders, all new lines, and the new rubber parts, but no choice on silicone compatibility or not. We spent hours on hours fighting leaks that would have not have occurred if we had used the regular fluid, or had silicone compatible parts been available.
