Chrysler says to use synthetic 10w30 motor oil but it shears out of grade so fast, in 10k miles roughly

I have used Rotella T3 15w40 which worked pretty well, but Redline MT-90 is the absolute best
​​​​​​
​​​​​​My shifts are noticeably smoother than with motor oil, or even synchro mesh which I have run before

I've been happy with synchromesh, but I'll go synthetic 10w-30 next go round.

Redline MT-90 is wonderful stuff, put that in and forget about it.
