Although I ended up with BG's SyncroShift II "FWD" synthetic MTF rather than any of the choices you've listed:
PO had been using 75wt gear oil & I started to have 5th-gear in/out problems around 135k miles. Shop flushed the tranny (same shop PO had been using) & filled with SyncroShift & it's been great for the past 3yrs/25k miles (better than when I bought the car with 113k miles on it).
As you said, this shop told me to stick with gear oil & not switch to 10W-30. Now, however, this same shop is recommending conventional 10W-30 instead of 75wt gear oil for all C900s, but since I was already using gear oil they told me to stick with the BG-SS2.
Have you seen the "Saab's POV on gear lubes" bulletin on Townsend's site?
