Correct, can use fully synthetic as well. You must be getting tired P, if you forgot that one

Pete,
That is what I use. How many track days to you have before you change it out? I do it after 2 track days. Is that too often or

For crist sake dont use any of that stuff... Turst me after 2 Crown wheel and Pinion rebuilds as they both worn out....

Use the same stuff Guy (Blue Satin) recomends, it's thicker and helps stick to the Crown wheel better as the Contact point is normaly below the oil level but inverted it isn't.... I used Mobile 75/90 then Commor Semi 75/90 both worn out the Crown wheel.....

Thats why I fitted a Oil injector directed striaght at the Contact point on the GTW...

Yes there maybe alot of other people saying there car is ok, but like "Blue" I used my car alot and probably did 12000 miles in 2 years... so please dont make the same mistake... Thicker Porsche recomend oil is best, if you dont have a Oil pump etc

What does he recommend? And does that hold true with a trans oil cooler, pump and spray bars?

I was seeing trans oil temnps of 250F at the track, seems to high to me (180-200 is mya average for street driving). I was thinking of adding an electric fan to the trans oil cooler. I'm not convinced there is that much air getting in the side vents. Any thoughts here?

What is the recommended oil fill amount with the oil ccoler and all lines etc.?

Thanks, not having built the car I'm learning the hard way!
