What Paul said, Kirk.... While I am sure you can use synthetic oil, the synchros most likely will not be as effective as they would be, considering the box was built with petroleum based oils in mind. The substitute Datsun box is this way, though unlike the Spridget boxi it uses gear oil rather than motor oil. Synchro performance definitely decays due to the more "slippery" synthetic though shifting in cold, winter climates is definitely easier with synthetic, most definitely initially after start.
