What tranny fluid?
It calls for GM Syncromesh, but what is everyone else using? I've used redline ATF in the past but figured i'd ask!??

Re: What tranny fluid?
50-50 Mix of Redline MT-90 and Redline MTL in ours

edit - To answer questions below

MTL: 70W80 GL-4 Gear Oil (SAE 5W30/10W30 engine oil viscosity)

MT-90: 75W90 GL-4 Gear Oil that’s slightly heavier than MTL

Re: What tranny fluid?
I cut a hole in the tranny tunnel and used 4 threaded inserts and then made a cover plate with 4 screws. So I take the cover plate off and use a tranny funnel and fill away....

Otherwise I used to take the tunnel out each time.

Like Brian I cut a hole in the tunnel that lines up with the fill plug. I used a hole saw around 1.5" dia. Use a funnel with a piece of tube on it to fill tranny. Then just use black race tape over hole. Due to position you cant really see it.
