I am about to put the engine/trans back in the race car, figured I'd drain
the gearbox and put some fresh fluid in it. It's a "stock" box with TR7
gears, supposedly better bearings, etc. I don't remember what oil I put in
it. Should I use a multiweight, straight weight, synthetic?
No overdrive here.
