Thanks for the replys. I have the 5w-20 in my engine right now. I think I'll give the syncromax a try.

I am running the RP ATF and it made a big difference, the stock fluid looked like metalic paint and the transmission was not shifting smoothly... The car had 3,500 miles when I changed it out... I have the dif fluid in the garage and will swap that out at 5K...

Hello Every.. First Post here.

I've driven manual trans most of my life, most recently a T-56 out of a Vette. I haven't heard anyone else mention it, and maybe it's just mine.

1- Am I the only person that thinks the 5mt out of the Mustang is very... umm.. "heavy" ??


2- If not, does the Royal Purple trans fluid improve the smoothness of the shifting / syncros?
