I'm using RP in engine, tranny, and differential. I get it here:

Not sure about RP (but know that my local Napa carries it). AMSOIL can easily be bought online (info in my sig).

P.S. FYI, I recommend these for the C5 manual:
Tranny: AMSOIL Torque-Drive Synthetic Transmission Fluid (product code ATD1G - you'll need 1 gal)
Diff: AMSOIL Severe Gear Extreme Pressure Synthetic 75w90 (product code SVGQT - you'll need 2 quarts)
Note: This fluid comes with friction modifier already in it and most C5 diffs do not require extra to prevent diff chatter
Handy for the DIYer: AMSOIL Hand Pump (product code G2039)
Note: I recommend removing the plastic tip from the hose - not needed and might come off somewhere you do not want it to.
