Rebuilt trans questions?

[talontsiboy24]

So my trans will be done with the performance rebuilt tomorrow night and im wondering should redline heavy shock proof be best to use in the transfer case? also what type of synthetic trans fluid is best to use?

also how long does it take for the trans to break in? is it ok i go fast or do i have to drive the speed limit till it breaks in?

The redline is beter fluid, A good break in is around 200 miles! Do some stop and go driving to get a good break in, not only highway, that helps seat in the clutches a little faster.

who is rebuilding it?

my rebuilt tranny from Jack's Transmission should be here nex Wed.

this is right from his site

DSM Transmission rebuilds

Q: What kind of gear oil do you recommend?

A: For our DSM and 3S transmission rebuilds we recommend factory Mitsubishi 6-speed manual transmission gear oil from the 2005 Mitsubishi EVO MR. (Part number mz313376). This is the best oil to use as it has the perfect blend of friction modifiers to keep the tranny shifting smoothly and prevent gear failure. Please make sure you use the proper amount as specified in your owners manual (typically 2.4 Qts.) Gear oil choice is very important and varies based on preloads and synchro blocker ring design, therefore it is strongly recommended that you stick with this fluid for our transmissions. If you are unable to locate Mitsubishi MR 6-speed oil from the Mitsubishi dealer, Redline Heavyweight Shockproof 50/50 mixed with Valvoline 80W-90 gear oil will also work just as well. For transfer cases and rear ends, use Redline Heavyweight Shockproof ONLY. It is especially important to use only Redline Heavyweight Shockproof fluid or Mitsubishi dealer t-case fluid in EVO transfer cases. DO NOT use Synchromesh, BG Synchroshift I or II, or Royal Purple. These fluids will destroy synchros and gears and void your warranty! THESE ARE THE ONLY FLUIDS WE HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH. If you ask us "Will xyz fluid be okay?" we won't have an answer for you.

so i am going with the 50/50 mix of Shock proof and valvoline

so 200 miles from now will i be ok to race the car? and is it ok for me to drive fast with the car or do i have to take it easy since it needs to break-in?
