Ive used both RedLine and R.P.

the Redline worked great but tried the R.P. last time i did my clutch and i crunched from 1st to 2nd just like when i had the stock stuff in so i'm back to the RedLine again.

Was it GL-4 or GL-5? MOst people mistaken that GL-5 is better and backwards compatible. Our cars take GL-4.

How much gear oil does an 01 tibby take and how much is that redline oil. Sounds like that the best.

I have been driving with Royal Purple for a few days now, and it is amazing stuff!

I can't believe the difference. Feels like an entirely different tranny. It's firmer, almost like it's a heavier oil than 75w90, but not hard to get in gear at all. Smooth and solid. In fact, I used to have problems getting into reverse on occasion, and would have to try several times forcefully. I've tested reverse at least 100 times already (every time I stop basically) and not once have I had any trouble. I really didn't expect any improvement over the semi-synthetic I was running, but it's night and day.
