Default Redline Trans. Oil

I think I posted that right. Anyway I just heard about it. I have been running Amsoil and hear that Redline shifts better. What's your thought.
Thanks

OK, if its GL-4 you should be ok.

Some of the fluids that are different than the OEM fluid tend to destroy the syncros.
