 interesting that there are different recommendations for transmissions

The Laycock manual does. I think that the TR3 manual also says 30 wt. with OD 
somewhere. TR4-6 manuals do not as far as I know. Anyway, I use 50 wt - it's 
warm here in South Florida! The TR2-6 OD units are all essentially the same, 
later cars had bigger pistons.
