Also.. i was always skeptical of the lucas combo. I remember there was also a thread, could have been on HA.com where me and a couple of other people said that simple ass synchromesh felt smoother then the lucas combo.
now i never posted on HA.com but cuz of that i started putting synchromesh in the car i at one point did have the lucas/redline combo and to me the synchromesh is about the same for cheaper
plus the synchromesh seems to last kinda longer when i pulled my redline(sans lucas) it was a dark color but when i did the synchromesh again it was kinda lighter in color
i still would run redline though....there both good stuff
and i absolutely hate mystery oil i put that in my old del slow and it friggin got my valves all crappy i ended up having to power flush the dam oil out to get it to stop smoking
ugh
