Brian;

Small world,while looking over your reply to my post I saw this post and had to reply... I have a Tremec in my Mustang behind a 350hp,351-W,car now has about 21,000 miles,mostly highway miles with about 30 to 40 1/4 mile passes and about 250 miles of open track at speed on two different tracks,1.8 miles long and 1.3 miles long.... I use it but do not abuse it,usually shift at no more than 5500 rpms as this motor was originally built for the street,not strip.....

Started out with Redline MTL,ran it for about 15,000 miles,no problems what-so-ever,decided to change the fluid and flush the trans.,saw all kinds of posts here about GM synchromesh and can get a 25% discount on GM and Ford parts,so I tried and still have the GM stuff in right now,been there for about 6000 miles.... Honestly can not tell any difference in the way the trans shifts or works.....The GM stuff must be pretty good as that's what comes in the new Corvettes...........I'll probably stay with it for cost only,if I remember right,they were both about the same price per quart,but I can get the GM stuff at 25% off retail price..........
