havent tried that yet,but i like their water wetter,and the dieselfuel catalyst additive(they make 2 varities,for non cat cars/cat cars)
the stuff is sorta thick,and a lil syrupy,like its more concentrated then most additives,like its seems as thick almost as atf

i heard good things about the gear oils,just get the right grade
Throttle cables ftw

I've used Redline in all my 020 trans and it has been great stuff... compared to synthetics out there now...not too sure but its always had a good reputation. Royal Purple is also another popular one to change over too with good results. There is some info over on the Vortex as well on both types as well as off the shelf synthetics too...

I've used Redline in my trannies since about 1995. Couldn't be happier.
