I'd like to share my input. I just recently did a mini rebuild. I went to the auto store and bought 2 quarts of coastal and 1 quart of valvoline all 75w-90. They didn't have 3 quarts of coastal. Poured it in and noticed that the valvoline stuff is a lot cleaner looking going into the tranny. The coastal stuff looked like it was recylcled lube. Anyhow after filling it up I went to drive around. At first before the car warmed up it was a little tight to get into the gears. After it warmed up it was a different story. Very smooth and engaged better than ever. I love this stuff. I prefer it over Pennzoil Syncromesh. My advice would be to get the better valvoline lube other than coastal. I'm not ripping on coastal but that valvoline lube looked a lot cleaner going in. I'm going to use this stuff from now on.
