Redline 75W-90NS GL5 then ?


You have the Sport Classic II's ?

i'd actually go with the Swepco 201; i like it better than the redline. cheaper, too.

i do indeed have the SportClassic II's; they're 996 offset. love 'em.

the cheapest i can find the redline for is like 3 bucks cheaper than the OEM oil from the main dealer.

i guess for the cost difference its worth getting the OEM product, unless there is any reason not to.

Drain and fill plugs on order!

cheers.

BTW love the Sport Classic II's myself.

do you have an aversion to the swepco? i have used OEM, Redline & Swepco 201. i prefer the swepco by a significant margin; much smoother shift & better cold weather performance.
