Best differential oil?

Hey guys. I've heard Amsoil 75w-90 is good for the diff. Any opinions on it? I currently drive a 99 camaro z28 model so any help would be great.

Use whatever the factory called for.

Amsoil's gear oil seems to be one of their highly regarded products.

Just make sure to put limited-slip additive in with the gear oil if you have a limited-slip diff.

The limited slip formula is not required for the Torsen, but if after I place the amsoil in and it still makes noise, i'll see if the LSlip will do. Thanksfor the help.
