I can't give you any technical data on oils but I use Mobil 10W-40 in my 72 Corvette and I use Mobil1 synthetic lubes in transmission and differential. The lube I use is Mobil 1 Synthetic Gear Lube LS 75W-90. Of course, I use GM Positraction additive in the differential too.
If you read Consumer Reports you will see that any name brand oil will suit your needs fine. Others will chime in about this oil or that oil being better, but I trust an independent lab, doing scientific analysis, over word of mouth.
