My favorite (what I use) is Redline MT-90 gear oil. It meets the original
GL4 specification, and is specifically designed for use in synchronized
manual transmissions.
I can't say I noticed any change in overdrive operation (over the Valvoline
20W50 racing oil I used to use), but it made a noticeable improvement in
synchro operation.
Not cheap, and prices vary widely, so shop around. I found a case on Amazon
for a good price, so I've got a lifetime supply :)
