I don't know of any flush myself, I would do the magnet thing from the 
previous email though.  Just thought I would put my two cents in on 
what type of sythetic to use, and my vote is for AMSOIL.  I have never 
used castrol or redline, but I was pretty much amazed by the 
difference in feel from the regular gear oil and the AMSOIL.  I no 
longer have any problem shifting (hot or cold) and there is definitely 
no grinding (unless It was my own fault - like I said no grinding).  I 
guess all synthetics are pretty expensive, the AMSOIL I bought was 
around $10/qt.

HTH,
