Default Transmission oil

I have a 82 5speed looking to change the transmission oil wondering what the best product to use.....I'm not sure if my car has the limited slip.

Make sure whatever you use is GL5, per your owners manual. If you don't have one, use this (compliments of AO): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzC...zQ2/view?hl=en

See page 59.

I have whichever Redline product was appropriate, I don't recall which, as it's been a couple years. I have no complaints...

Mine has an LSD, and all I could find was use GL5 grade and it will be fine. 15 years in , no problems, I can feel the LSD kick in on damp corners from a standing start.
