Daryl stopped recommending Redline a number of years ago, if I recall
correctly he understood that they had changed the formula and he did not
feel the new version would provide the lubrication and protection necessary
for our transmissions.  I did speak with him about alternatives and he was
fine with Swepco especially for the higher horsepower crowd, he also said
that Amsoil would be ok, was not sure about Royal Purple but only for lack
of knowledge with the product, and had no comments I can remember other
brands on the market.
