We use Redline 75W/90 gear oil. This is great for heat and improved shifter feel.

Should be 75W90. MTL is slightly lighter weight

Default Yep! However, I think Redline may have re-labeled. (more)

In the past, MT90 was the 75W-90 oil, and MTL was a 75W-80 oil. I believe that Redline now labels the 75W-90 as 75W-90, and the 75W-80 is still MTL. I think that's the case anyway! :-)
