Red Line Motor
Oils vs. Race Oil
The Red Line Motor Oil
is a detergent oil designed to offer good protection over an
extended drain interval and to keep combustion by products in
suspension. The Race Oil is a non detergent oil designed to
make the most power and offer the best protection, but not
recommended on the street. The lack of detergents will
slightly reduce friction, but consequently will need to be changed
more frequently. In street applications, we generally follow
the original manufactured viscosity recommendation with Red Line
Oil, a low viscosity can be safely used do to superior protection
offered. |
Differential Gear Oils
In most differentials on the
street the 75W90 is recommended, either open or limited slip. The
Red Line 75W90 has a friction modifier to reduce chatter in a clutch type
limited slip, in an open differential it is also beneficial in reducing
friction and temperatures. The 75W90NS is sometimes used in a racing
clutch type limited slip for maximum lock-up, or fine tuning the lock-up
with Friction Modifier. The DIFFERENTIAL
FRICTION MODIFIER & BREAK-IN ADDITIVE
is
a friction modifier designed to reduce limited-slip noise andFriction
Modifier is added to the gear lube when chatter is present when making a
slow tight turn with a clutch type limited slip. |
About ShockProof
SHOCKPROOFTM
GEAR OIL The
ShockProf gear lubes are recommended primarily for racing applications as
well as some motor cycle applications. The ShockProof Heavy is
recommended in thge Harley transmissions. The LightWeight
ShockProof or SuperLightweight for two stroke transmissions. The
Shockproof Heavy is recommended in most drag race rear differentials,
sprint cars etc. The Friction Modifier is recommended in addition if
the differential is not a clutch type limited slip. The LightWeight
and Super LightWeight are used in some racing differentials and
transmissions.

SYNTHETIC
ATF - synthetic Dexron II, Mercon, and
Mercedes-Benz approved fluid. Superior stability allows high-temperature
operation without varnishing valves and clutches. Also provides improved
shifting in cold weather.
D4
ATF - synthetic Dexron III and Mercon fluid meeting the
requirements of most transmission manufacturers, while satisfying GL-4
gear oil requirements. Superior stability allows high-temperature
operation without varnishing valves and clutches. Also provides
tremendously improved shifting in cold weather. The best low-temperature
shiftability for manual transmissions and transaxles which require ATFs.
