Redline Manual Transmission Fluid Change

Yes. Just debating where I’ll bring it to to do the swap. I’m not equipped to do it myself at the moment.

Whoa isn’t that way way different than the oem viscosity!?

A little off topic, but do you guys know the torque spec for the transmission fluid check plug/bolt? I tried following these torque spec but can't see anything specifically for that bolt unless it's registered as a fill plug. So far I've just snugged it down and will check for leaks, but would like to know if there's a recommended torque for it.

Probably gear vs crankcase oil grade rating. It's silly, but it's not a fully standardized weight and viscosity system. One gear oil 80w could be as close to a 20w or as far as a "35w" crankcase oil. While that 20w crankcase oil with one product might be to a 30w for another product, especially at higher operating temps.

Google for a oil viscosity weight comparison chart and you'll get the idea.

Oh ok yeah I’m familiar with that fuckery. Didn’t think that could’ve been what split them. Thnx for reminding me
