With regard to shifting at low temperatures and gear oil:  

There was a garage here in N.C. years ago that carried drums of 80W-90
stuff made by a company in Houston called - LUBRICATION ENGINEERS.  It
was impressive stuff and is used I believe by folks that run big earth
moving equipment which is tough to shift when cold and doesn't warm up
real quick.  Never saw it in quarts, just ~40 gallon drums.  They did
make a nice 30 weight motor oil that you could get in quarts.  Anyone out
there know a place to buy these products?
