That would correspond with the Army Report I cited (and linked) on the previous page.

All of these fluids have an application.

Some people assume that posts in this subforum are oriented toward racing, and on the other side, there are a few who don't have clue that some people are here because they are very interested in high performance driving and racing. Otherwise the pros and cons seem to be outlined pretty well. Both silicon and non-silicone have their place.

Whichever you choose, it will depend on the intended uses and priorities.
