What exact Brand/type of oil do you use? (NOT A DISCUSSION)
Hey guys. Just wanted to make a thread of people simply stating what brand and type of oil they use. This is not a discussion on what is best in terms of the great synethetic/nonsynthetic debate. Thanks!

royal purple max gear for tran and diff, previously I had used redline. I prefer the RP.
engine oil I use either RP 10w30 synthetic or castrol syntec 10x30 (yes, I know it's not real synthetic, but it has very good marks for protection and breakdown)
since I'm using the sohn omp adaptor, I use royal purple 2 stroke synthetic.

Valvoline 5w-20 in the engine now, but switching to Castrol GTX next oil change. Not sure if I'll go 5w-20 or 5w-30.
Stock fluids in the trans and diff now, but switching to Royal Purple MaxGear 75w-90 in both.

Royal Purple MaxGear 75W90 in trans and diff
And I can't forget...
Yamalube R2 pre-mix and FP60 in the fuel.

Castrol in the engine.
I'm about ready to change the gear oil to something smoother. It doesn't like to find reverse on very cold mornings.

Still have whatever the factory uses in the transmission and rear end. But by the looks of it, I need to think about RP in the tranny and rear end when I change it!
