Default Put Redline Tranny oil in this weekend: Review and warning to all......

First of all, my shifting is not notchy, even with the short shifter. Its VERY smooth. Probably more more than it was with/o the short shifter. Its like butter :P

Warning. While draining the oil, the tranny oil nut was not on tight. And oil was seeping out of the nut. Out of 3 1/4 quarts, only about 1 was left in the tranny. It was still clean, so I'm safe.

Maybe the reason I think the tranny is so smooth with the redline is because I was missing more than 1/2 my tranny oil. Oh well. I LOVE IT and RECOMMEND IT TO EVERYONE!

Didn't you notice a puddle of oil where you park? Just curious.

Default Nope, the leak was slow enough that it probably dried before it go on the ground. Advise to check

just in case.
