I'm still pondering the same hydro but thought I would bump it up to ask another question.
The hydro units use a common overflow tank and take type F auto trans fluid. If I'm right that's 10 wt oil. The suggestion was made by several to run thicker oil in it. Is that going to cause a high pressure situation and make the shaft seals implode? I'm also wondering if it will foam in that environment. Would I be better off running a 20-50 synthetic oil in it?
