As the title says, I've been doing some digging ( not literally !) , however i've come across some seemingly quiality stuff, an alternative ( a bloody expensive one at that ! )...

anybody used / heard of these chaps ? I've just took the plunge for some very tough gearbox oil °\(

my wallet literally bled as i heard the cost for 3 litres ( 3 quarts ! )

inc P&P mate, almost, yes wait for it .....

£70.

It's meant to be used in drag cars, which suffer extremet shear stress ( won't stop the bellousing on a 6sp from cracking ), however it's a 75w 120 GL5 mix.

I have just leak tested the gearbox cooler & it was a bastard to do, there just is NO room at the front of the coop, but i've managed to squeeze in a cooler, pump, hoses, SIP & cabling all into the space that used to hold the WMIC.

Real difficult. The normal banjo bolt was no use & had to order a long M10 fine, just aggro all the way.

The engine runs tho'.

Should be on the road next week, then ready to send off to Flea for mapping \:\)
