Limited Slip Additive

Does anyone know if Mobil One has a limited slip additive in it?

I looked into this when I had my 951 with LSD. The answer I got from Mobil's web-site was "typically no friction modifier is needed when Mobil 1 gear lube is used in LSD differentials". Of course the important word in that answer is "typically", under some circumstances a friction modifier probably is needed. In my case the Mobil 1 gear lube seemed to work fine in my 951's LSD (and yes, the LSD worked fine also).

Thanks Jerry. I'm going to try it in my G50.

no answer, but another question

I have a 915 w/ factory LSD. I'm using Swepco. Do I need an additive, or is Swepco alone good enough?
