Kinda late here, BUT, I had heard that you should NOT use a synthetic for the break in period. Hot weather use the 140, colder use the 90. No Friction additive either. THEN, dump it after break-in, and add the proper 140 or 90 synthetic. (Been trying to find the source, I think it was MRT)

I'm getting this done either tomorrow or Friday. Pretty sure the manual says synthetic, lemme go look.

Right on, you must start a new thread when you do it. I can't wait to hear what you think about it.

FOUND IT!!!
Mustang Enthusiest Magazine. Newest Issue: March 2006.
Direct Quote from Page 54. B & D Racing. "Fill with quailty 75W-90 gear oil for colder weather, or 85W-140 for warmer climes. Synthetic oil is NOT recommended during the break-in period (approximately 50 miles). We tried Redline synthetic first and can attest that the unit needs regular gear oil to wear-in properly."
