I also ran alysyn syn in the scarab and it foamed too. it was a real thin oil.

Thanks Bob, I think I'll go ahead and try the redline. I called them and they recommend the Gear lube heavy and see what happens.

I use redline and love it in my A/T 2nd boat

If you want, try good ol'e stock MERC stuff see what happens :D

it will work of course but not as well as syn. and you don't have that added insurance if your not running a good syn. like redline shock proof as we've all been over ,but capo by all means run what trips your trigger :D I'm staying with the tough stuff .

Yep it may work there capo ///,do you use it in you boat ,what type motor is in you Sunsation if you had some power you would know why you need all the protection you can get ,I think most of these guy have the best equip. they can buy and want the best protection they can get ,just since I've been on this board there have been countless threads on what to use and why ,oh well
I'll stop here

Bull**** Cessna! You can use factory and it will be fine. Unless you are running a full APBA or SBI race at WOT all day long. It's a waste of $$$ all in your head and drive that is :D

I'm not downing syn fluids at all I spent hours in GM training classes and all the engineers say the same thing for everyday use you do NOT need syn oils as long as you change at suggested intervals. If GM thought they could cut down on warranty claims by using different oils trust me the BIG 3 would be doing just that.

So your a typical prts changer capo !! I'm damn proud of you ,the big three do use syn in spec. applications and alot of us have 750 plus H.P. and alot of load ect.from running ,poker runs ect and if you don't know the syn. is better by all the past post your hopless !! go back and read some of them their very good by some smart people ,but I agree on a sunsation with stock or close to it you can get by of course with stock fluid ,,but for sure everyone knows syn is hands down better than stock fluid for our high h.p. high load conditions which in most cases are harder than
factory races for sure
most people on here have alot more power and run as hard or harder than supervised races ,but this is wasting time with this as you would argue with a fence post
use what you like

Guys there is a poll on this page thats been here for weeks and 156 people have responded and 146 out of 156 use SYN oil 10 use petro.base oil hopfully they're not all wrong or full of someones words BS:p
I agree enough said on this the board guys know what works :D

typical parts changer ? Far from it buddy, and if you can read You'll see where I said Synthetic is better for Hp applications vs stock applications.


People are so quick to flap their yappers anymore without reading.
