Mobil 1 or synchromesh
ok I know this has been beat to death but I can not make my mind up. I have a built MN12 in a c5z, live in Houston, roll race and want to get into autocross, built 402 on 8LBS. I am leaning more towards the synchromesh because of the abuse it will take but i have read mixed reviews on this stuff. On the other hand I have not found anything bad about mobil 1. Any first hand experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

yes... It has awesome reviews everywhere in the t56. I tried synchromesh, castrol, mobil, and redline out of all 4 redline was the best. It completely alleviated the notchiness when cold and was smoother all around than the others. syncromesh was good also but was a little notchy when cold

nothing wrong with mobil 1 but I'd hate paying that price for something that technically isnt a "pure synthetic" also when I tried mobil 1 it was incredibly notchy when cold. synchromesh was pretty good (better than mobil) but when i tried redline everything changed. Not to say its some miracle fluid that makes the trans shift like a honda but it does elimiate 85-90% of cold notchy feelings and when completely warm shifts just as good if not better than any other fluid i tried

Thanks guys, I went with redline but I won't be able to report back for a little bit. I am trying to wire up a c5 with the holley dominator and keep all of the stock gauges and traction control. I will let you know how she ***** when I get it all back together.
