Hi Everyone,
I've searched online but haven't found any solid answers other than what the
dealer sells.
I have a '95 Chevy P/U, 305ci, and a five speed manual tranny. Does anyone
know what model number, and type of gear oil this tranny takes? I've found
different answers online so I'm not sure.
Thanks a lot, Brian.

I used Royal Purple 90 weight in my '64 T-10 4spd. It is synthetic.

Just for your info, don't know if it helps.

I think he should look in his owners manual and use what it says. Most new
manual transmissions use ATF. Old style gear lube will kill the
synchronizers.
