I use Amsoil, have for the last four seasons. No issues found on reseal this winter. That in B1's with 600 HP in front of them. I have a local guy I usually pick up a five gallon pale from ($181.00). That way I can do my 20 drains and fills for a couple of seasons. You can look it up on the web, and find a local distributor, they are all over the country. That is my preferance. Pete

I can order Ouick Sliver High Performance gear oil for you. It runs about 180.00 for 5 gals.

Default Gear oil

Just replaced twisted shafts in my sportmaster after 10yrs running Klotz in it and the gears and bearings looked great. If you get near Milwaukee I stock Klotz Estorlin synthetic Gear lube 80W/90 Hypoid. good stuff. if you want a different weight I can order. Just call me at 414-581-4300 if interested.

Thanks,
Jeff

I've run Royal Purple 75/90, ever since Mr. Gadget went through my drives several years ago. Just change at the end of every season.

I wouldn't use Royal Purple if it was free, or Lucas anything!

The way I look at this test is, for someone to put this into print, they better be right about their statements!
