Re: What Oil for a T5 Gearbox

AT the right side of the box (mid section) you will see a round casting form that indicates the year (84 or others) you can see that also at the top cover.
At the left side close to the backup switch you can read some casting number something like 13-52-065. OK the last two figures are not the correct tag of your gearbox but are close to it, so your box can be a 13-52-062.
Try at the above mentioned site this combination and you should find the year and application.
One thing is for shore:
NWC use 75W90 and WC use ATF
it is because the changes that B&W made to the synchromesh. The new ones are sintered metal instead of Bronze.
