redline... mt-90 or lightweight/heavyweight shockproof take your pick. (i'm using lightweight shockproof and i love it)

Yeah, I'd definitely recommend MT-90. It's pretty awesome.

ok i called pep boys, abc auto parts, mechanics auto parts, advanced auto.....no one has this stufff

one performance shop says they have 3 quarts of redline tranny fluid....he said it doesnt specify if its MTL or MT-90 on it though...they ~$11 / quart.....is this the stuff i want? how many quarts do i need?

all the redline oil says what it is clearly on the label... here's a good site where you can see what i'm talking about: http://www.myoilshop.com/
the bottles look exactly like those. u'll need 3 quarts for your tranny and i've really never seen them go for more than $9/bottle anywhere at all. try ordering from the link above, i heard they're pretty good.

Hey thanks for the link--

I've been looking for places that sell redline on the cheap...I'll place my order there next time.

I use Redline MT-90 for tranny and Redline 75-90 differential specific fluid. No problems, works great.
