I use Mobil 5/30 in the motor and AMSOIL in the tranny. Tranny temps were lower by about 5-7* since changing over from factory fluid. See my sig for other cooling enhancements. Hope this helps.

I just had mine changed and that's what the Corvette Shop put in. No problems.

I have both trans and diff oils ready to install, from what I understand it is a great product for our cars.

Nothing but in my cpe front to back. AMSOIL was the only product that got rid of the diff chatter. I have it in the engine, AT and diff. Its worth every penney.

Running it here also. Like their products, but their advertisement/distribution is somewhat funky.
