I don't have a bottle in front of me, but I believe it is 75W-90. Use either Royal Purple or Redline.

I didn't realize Royal Purple or Redline made K-Y Jelly. (sorry, couldn't resist)

This thread is full of innuendos!
In fact, the word "innuendo" is an innuendo in itself!

Just wait for my next post. I'm having too much fun.

I think "MANUEL TRANS FLUID FOR THE TRANNY" is used by the transvestites south of the border.

Redline for everything. 10w30 for the engine, MTL for the transmission and 75-90 for the diff. Plus friction modifier to the Mugen LSD.
