RE: Try running 5W-50 Mobil1 or 15W-50 Mobil1
By John - 04/23/2001 9:12:04 PM; IP 142.177.52.49
Thank-you Mr Shoe. Yes, I intend on up-grading the pan to the atrociously expensive (but cheaper than a rebuild) Aviad 55410 which holds 9 qts plus filter and includes a custom pick-up, windage tray and some sort of baffle tray. 5W50 Synthetic sounds fine for after the engine is broken in. I use it in my 350 I/O boat with no problems (sorry Ford guys). So, one more question and I promise to end this subject for good..."What's a good weight then for mineral oil during break-in, as you can't get the 5 to 50 W range in mineral oil?" 1000 miles takes a long time for a Sunday driver...er...hobby car.

Thanks again: John
