Ive never used it, but if it is a full synthetic GL-5 rated lube, your good to go!

Amsoil 75W-110 HDD is working very well for me. Little more viscosity when warm than a -90, yet not so thick as a -140. Good in betweener. New from Amsoil in the past 6 months or so.

Thanks for the replies! I watched the www.bobistheoilguy.com video, definately not impressed. I think I'll go with Amsoil.
