my thoughts on oils
 
Really a multi weight oil syn.is the best way to go with modern oils!
Years ago multi weight oil used to break down under load and today multi weight oil (syn ) is really not going to do that but alot of people from the old school still belive this to be a problem ,I and alot of builders I know((( RaceteamsIncluded))) use a multi weight syn. in their motors with turbo's and blowers and have no trouble with the multi weight syntheic.
Its easier on the motor to start and everytime you slow down and loff along and the oil cools down then you jump on it to pass a friend !!
Also you need the right weight for your clearances in your motor
if you use multi weight the oil is right for the temp of the motor ,ect.
It does hold up and is better really ! if you change it often every 20 or so hrs. I like the SYN AMSOIL racing oils if you go longer or have less load a 10w40 marine and diesel AMSOIL is killer

The MAIN THING IS USE SYNTHETIC OIL PERIOD !!!!
My 2 cents worth :D :D :D :D :D
