Has any here thought about the fact that when using these "aftermarket" or "performance" gear oils oppesed to what's in the transmission from the factory they are doing it for 1 reason. And that's for the part it is to be used on to perform under not so normal operating conditions. They make the stuff to hold abuse, and yes eventually it won't matter what you will put in, shit will wear out. But the goal is for the wear to be delayed with these oils oppesed to the same abuse using factory recomended oils.

I know people who swear by one type of Redline mix and another who loves a slightly differant mix. Some how will stick to what they have been using as it has worked for them.

And as for the nutty man calling it water... LOL you should see the Heavy Shockproof. Oh my! 75w250. WooT!
