I use the Prestone yellow premix which you can get at any Wal-mart and you don't have to worry about mixing it or bad water. Power steering- Dexron ATF only dude. Any brand will do. NO power steering fluid. Naughty, naughty! Red Line MT 90 is awesome for the differential side. ATF- Pick a brand. They are pretty much all the same. Oil- Castrol 10-40 until your engine is done breaking in (1000 miles or so) then 20-50. Have fun!
