Default Fluids

I searched and couldn't find exactly what I'm looking for. I'm about to do some work on my rig and need to know how much and what kind fluid to get.
Doing a complete 50k tune up

1989 Porsche C4 49k

Engine Oil- I figure Mobil 0w40 not sure how much?
Tranny Oil-Mobil Delvac 75w90 4 quarts?
Clutch Oil-?
Drive Axles (C4) -?

Thanks guys.

Engine oil change with new filter - 9.5 quarts
Transmission oil - 3.9 quarts
Front diff oil - 1.25 quarts
Clutch oil = none
Drive axles = check the CV boots for nicks and tears.

You may want to flush your brake lines and clutch slave cylinder too. I would plan on 2 quarts to ensure you don't run out. I use SuperBlue brake fluid

I didn't know Mobile 0W40 was recommended for a 964?? I use that in my 996, but use Mobile 15W50 in my 964.
Did I miss something?

Have a look here.

And if, after reading the above, you know what the "correct" oil is, perhaps you could share it with the group.

wow. now i have no idea. maybe i should go with 15w50. 0w40 might be a little too thin.
