I use Redline synthetic in my 95, I believe it is 80W-90 GL4 and if I had the 99 I would not hesitate to use it. Some believe that seal leakage problems can result and I expect this is possible but have not experienced it, many factors are involved. There may be a Redline product that is 75 or 80 viscosity which would be closer to the alternate recommendation than 80W-90. Suggest you talk to Redline and follow their suggestion. Leakage problems are more likely in high-mileage situations with old seals and/or shaft grooving where the seals ride. These situations can be addressed with sufficient $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
