Let me tell ya. Your opening a can of worms. This type of post brings out all the arguments.
Personally I have used the Aims oil in all three holes and was happy. Last time I tried Redline Shock Proof Heavy in the trans, and I'm still happy. I think all the synthetics are good cheap insurance. I do mine every 5k.
Just do it!

Buy what is local. I use Mobil 1 20-50 and 75-90. If Amsoil, Redline, or Royal Purple were down the street, I'd try them too... My local auto parts store takes my old oil, so I buy what they have, which is Mobil 1 products...

They are not really even convienced about synthetic oils any way. Its that, we been using standard oils for years, hard coreold timerattitude. Not that there is anything wrong with that.!!
