Redline worked best for me.

YMMV, but the only one that ABSOLUTELY did not work was Swepco - so bad I drained it out and threw it away.

Greg's problem with Redline was that he had some leakage past the seals and therefor couldn't warranty his work. Haven't tried the GM stuff.

Good luck with consensus on any oil recommendations. On any forum (internet based or not) ANYWHERE! lol

What do you mean by 'absolutely did not work'?
