I like using AMSOIL, but simply put, yes you can use that in your engines.

A 5W in a HP offshore engine? Maybe if you live in Alaska.

Too much VI's and shear potential for me.

Now the VR-1 20W-50 is a different story.

The 5W-50 in a Porsche' 911 Turbo for racing all day long. The 5W formula is a European formula for cars.
