Fluid Change
I’m changing all my fluids. What is the recommendation?
Amsoil. 10-30?
Differential fluid? What kind and numbers I need to look for.
Transmission fluid redline syntec, any specific kind for the LT1?

Re: Fluid Change (93aqua)
I just did this. Be sure to flush your brake fluid at least every two years. Here's what I used:
Motor oil Mobil1 10W-30
trans lube (manual) Castrol Synthetic 10W-60
trans lube (auto) Mobil1
rear diff Mobil1
suspension lube points Mobil1
brake fluid Super Blue
clutch fluid GM
power steering Valvoline Synthetic
radiator Dex-Cool, no pellets

Re: Fluid Change (PTz-92-LT1)
I think as long as you use a fluid that meets the corvette specs. you will be fine. I do have a question for the guys using the mobil 1 diff. fluid. Do you use a additive and what is your experiences with it?

Re: Fluid Change (93aqua)
what are the correct specs...i want to make sure i get all the right fluids, dont want to mess up my car at all.
I recently changed to GM "cold climate" power steering fluid. It's semi synthetic like the Valvoline. Did use Valvoline for one year with no problems, but rumor of sensitivity to some seals.
You never said if your car is a manual or automatic?
