Redline 75W90 NS is GL-5 gear oil designed for limited-slip hypoid
differentials. The MT and MTL are GL-4 Gear Oil and designed to work
perfectly in a Healey transmission. Check the archives there is a ton
of info on it.

I made a mistake reporting the fluid-oil my friend had used in the
gearbox of his '60 BN7 who experienced a gearbox failure requiring
replacement.? He had been using Redline 75W90NS whether that is the MT
or MTL fluid-oil.
I use?SAE 30 non-detergent oil in my '60 3000 gearbox and its overdrive
and will probably not ever use anything else, period.
