it's not even $15 for 2 quarts, why are you asking this question. go to suto zone and look for a yellow bottle (PENNZOIL)

Penzoil yellow bottle = plain syncromesh

uber expensive non-cylindrical GM bottle = syncromesh friction modified.

Different fluids.

I use friction modified and It will put a band-aid on all of your grinding gears as long as they're not shot all to hell..

IMHO it's well worth the $9 per quart.

I've been using Penzoil Syncromesh for about a year and I like Honda MTF better.
