I'm using a mix of Redline MT90 and 75w90. Seems to be good so far.
Chris Barry got it for me. May still have some left.

I should have stock of both redline grades. I'm in Sydney and can measure out a 50/50% mix of the two grades. Saves youg buying 8 litres of oil when you only need ~1.6 litres Just bring a clean container.
PM me if you are interested.

Be careful using Castrol Syntrans. I've tried it in a few gearboxes and the syncros stopped working. Went back to redline and they worked fine. Seems the Castrol synthetic oils are too slippery for correct sychro operation.
Found that same thing with SAF-XA in an torsen LSD differential. Went back to a non-synthetic EPX80-90 and the LSD worked fine again.
