oils
Just make sure you use a good premix oil. Not some bargain basement stuff that Walmart has on sale. Be consistent with it and your ratio. Use the ratio the manufacturer of the oil recommends.
Ditto on the tranny oil and change it often.
You'll be all good.
Worrying over what's the best oil to use is a fool hardy worry.
I can't believe I'm responding to a "what oil" thread....
What does oil have to do with beer cans?

yep, asking what the best oil is is like what's the best pickup on the road. Dig around on here and you'll find plenty of opinions. Just one thing of caution when you decide on the tranny oil. Use one of the brands for diesel engines. Most of the regular motor oils these days have additives that will not agree with your clutch.
Maxima, BelRay, AmsOil, Blendzall, Honda...
Synthetic, Castor, Petroleum, whatever.
All good stuff.

Heres my best advice...
1. Spend $30 to get steel drive plates in the clutch if you dont have them already... The aluminum ones throw off WAY too much crap.
2. Get some 15w/40 diesel oil..... Like Rotella for $12 a GALLON, not a quart like some fiffy-poo-poo Motul synthetic shit....
3. Change it often. The tranny holds less than a quart. Not much oil compared to all the metal slinging around in there.
4. Done.
