 Andrew,

It is not uncommon to have engine oil specified for manual transmissions.  For the JH the 20-50 works well.  I believe many have tried variations and if I recall correctly all have pretty much returned to the 20-50 to get the best shift feel.

I am currently using 15W-50 synthetic in my transmissions.  I like the shift feel and considering that lack of availability of gears, hope the synthetic will help the gears live a nice long life.
