AMSoil i dont know. i have a local speed shop that carries it but i order from the AMSoil guy anyway.

i know autozone type places dont have AMSoil. but its worth a look.

maybe if you drop my name he will help ya out. but idk.

trans use the stuff he recommends. i forget the name and im to lazy to go look on the bottle 10 feet from me.

t/c and rear stick with stock fluids. i know a lot of people use other stuff even AMSoil but IMO stock is best.

THer are many reasons why Royal Purple is not cutting it, its amazing because with todays technology there is no reason why any company shouldn't be able to make quaity oil's,,, well let me see simple the cheaper i make an oil the more proffit up front i make, but thill will catch up with them eventyually.


anyhow for a 2.3 strocker i would not be running anything less than 10W40, it also depends how do you drive the car, typ of fuels you are using ect..
