Default Those using Redline D4 come in

Hi all my t56 was rebuilt not to long ago with carbon blockers so it does my have the paper linings on the synchros. With that said I currently have Mobil non synthetics ATF in it and it shifts rather notchy when cold. I've heard good things about synchromesh and redline d4 I had synchromesh once and it was ok but it is thicker so I didn't think it would do much for cold shifting. Redline otoh looks like it smooths out shifts on corvette forum and svt so I was just wondering what you alls experience with it was.

It worked out well for me.
Smoother shifts in my V with the T56 and my Silverado with the 4L60E trans.
I am very satisfied with it.

oh ok gotcha sounds good. my t56 is notchy going into 2nd gear until it fully warms up so hopefully this will help it out I was thinking about bleeding it again but it gets smoother as i drive it and its only in 1 gear so i doubt its hydraulics

anyone else have experience??
