I've been lookinf for which synthetic to use in my tranny, but also found a lot of people using the GM synchromesh. Which is best for a 93 Cobra T-5?
LOL. hey im not the smartest guy around. i think in your other thread that i said that Yount uses Amsoil in his Z spec (im too tired to remember now). i know he researches stuff a lot and is about 10000000000000000^10000000000000 times more knowledgable than i am - it is probably as good as anything for the Z-spec.88SC_GT said:at this point i could really give a **** less. if your using redline and the transmission isin't laying on the ground yet, thats what im going to use.
oh yeah, i think you mentioned that before in another thread (it is too late for me).88SC_GT said:transmission has 200 miles on it already from previous owner. it was built by D&D Performance for a sponcered racer. so im thinking the first few hundred mile fluid/fluid change will be covered when i fill it with whatever.
amsoil or redline is what im going to try.
thanks for the help
sounds good. i think this has been beaten enough for now.88SC_GT said:its not application direct, i worded that wrong. a sponcered driver bought it to use. it has modified syncro's, and an extra high geared OD, otherwards i think its a stock t5z.
he ran it with a custom bellhousing in a 99 cobra, a low 10 second car i believe. i emailed him and he said he used the stock t-5 fluid so i think redline or amsoil will work out fine.
