Might I recommend using gear lube/oil in your tranny? I use the 20/50 in my motor and primary but I do run the 75/90 in my tranny.

I know you can get away with the 20/50 in all 3 holes, many do it but there is a difference between the motor and tranny, temps, friction, wear, what they do and how they work. That is why it is called "gear oil".

Just my $0.02 on the subject!!!
