GM Synchromesh

There's a FAQ just a few threads up in all of those stickies....SixSpeedsInc recommends either Mobil1 or Gm Syncromesh if I'm not mistaken.

Yea I noticed when its below 20 deg the tranny is a lil notchy but as soon as it warms up it feels better.

I'm putting in my Tex OZ700 z-grip in the car and will put in the Syncomesh
