Default redline MTL or superlight shockproof oil

has anyone experimented with the redline superlight shock proof gear oil in their B-series hydro trans?

http://www.redlineoil.com/product.aspx?pid=42&pcid=8

just wondering if anyone had and good success with is compared to MTL? i'm using MTL right now and its almost time to change it....just wondering if i should just continue to use the proven MTL or try out the superlight shockproof stuff.

its going into a GSR gearbox with quaife LSD pushing 400HP+ out of it...no issues with the gear box at this time.

any comments?

Redline MTL is known to slowly dissolve the plastic bearing cages.

Since locals stopped using it per my suggestion, I've been replacing a lot fewer ISB's. Lucky 92+ B's use mostly metal cages, but not for all the bearings!

Torco RTF if you can find it, but it is not cheap @ $20 USD a liter.
