Straight 30 weight. I use Rotella. If you want to get fancy you can run straight 40 in the summer and 30 in the spring/fall but straight 30 year round will be fine for Jersey. Unless you're...

I'm hoping to get out for $1500 and I'm confident I can do it for 2k (exhaust not included). Let's call it $1750. Those CMI headers are $3500 not...

Sorry, was typing that other reply and didn't see this one until after.

Ok. I do have the exhaust tube instead of the bellows. I understand that helps flow a little better because it's not trying to push it all thru the prop? Not good enough for 400 hp?

Rubber Exhaust Elbow to Replace 3" Spacer

My stock small block exhaust has a 3" spacer between the riser and manifold. What is the purpose of the spacer? Is it only to line up to the Y based on how high/low the engine is mounted?
