Where do I find Redline Synthetic Oil?!?

I can't seem to find any auto parts store that has redline tranny fluid. Any suggestions? Also, is it a fairly difficult process on a first gen. to change the tranny fluid? I did a search already, but I'm just looking for opinions...Thanks-

Easy to change for that manual trans, but you will need a pump for the new stuff. Just drain and refill until it strats coming out of the fill hole. Easy enough?

You can find a list of dealers on Redline's web site, or order diectly from them. Just FYI, most of their oil products are $8/qt. I recommend the MT90 for the trans and the 75W90 for the differential which has the friction modifier already in it.

Summit sells the stuff. Its worth the cost too. Their webpage is:

www.summitracing.com

Now, can anyone tell me where I can buy their 2-stroke oil?
