Try that new Torco Synthetic Racing tranny fluid-- I hear it's really good, especially once the tranny is up to temp.

I have Redline MTL in mine. I filled it up untill the fluid just started running out. Also when you drain it, it will not drain all the way. I used my oil hand pump to "pump" out the rest of the oil. Don't forget to clean the magnet.

HTH,

Joe

I had and liked MTL.

I know have Royal Purple in there. It was much better at first, but after a couple hundred miles, I'm not sure it's THAT much better. I like it, but I don't know if it's better because it's better or because it's newer.
