I don't see many comments on people using Amsoil for motor oil, the M7, and the rear differential. Any opinions and suggestions on this?

This doesn't really apply to the C8, especially because the car is not out yet, but AMSOIL works great in all the previous generations of Corvette. I would imagine the AMSOIL DCT fluid would work perfectly in the C8, but I will wait to see the specific fluid specification that GM releases in the service manual before recommending it.
