Best Lubricant for After Market Billet Diverter Valves?

What is the best lubricant for the Aftermarket Diverter valves. I am sure it is a silicone derivative.

Anyone have a preference?

I would like to know a product name and where to get it.

There is one I looked at but do not know if it is good or not and that is RedLin CV-2 Synthetic High Temperature Grease

Thanks

SWR

I have the Bailey DV's which are maintenance free, if I had DV's that needed maintenance I would use a high temp. waterproof grease, Amsoil is the one I have in my garage. Redline CV-2 is also high temp. and waterproof.

its my understanding that even though the Bailey's are sold as "maint. free", it's a misnomer and you still need to occasionally perform maintenance on them.

Yip, good question... For those running Forge, if you call Forge up they will send you a free maintenance kit which consists of new top seal and some grease, actually come to think of it I'm sure they sent me new springs also.
