I have a very specific question regarding experience that others may have had with diff lube. I run a Quaiffe, which is a Torsen type limited slip. I am considering changing my diff lube from a synth

I use Red Line with the Quaife LS MGA diff that I run in my Lotus 6. I have not had a problem with it and all seems to work OK. The regular Red Line 75W90 Gear Oil has the limited slip additive and t
