the lighter the oil the better.. Less friction straight 10w here

But 40W will prevent the noisy valvetrain threads.

I heard the store brand motor oil gives you the most horsepower and torque.

Just use water, that works best... Water is pretty slippery... :)
All that oil is unnecessary weight. I took it out and I gained a tenth in the 1320. :wall:

Never wondered abt the oil… Free lifetime service at my dealer, until he closed down early this year. I am gonna be buying my own oil next time I go for service.

Amsoil 5w-30 year round. Been using it in everything I have owned for past 20 years w/no problems. I even dare to change the oil regulary at their 25,000 mile or one year recomendations.
Used their injector oil when I modded and ran jet skis and picked up 200 - 300 RPM every time when switching with no other mods.

Met a guy that NEVER changed his oil. He said: think about it - you don't change your air when you change your air filter? What a nut!
Another guy has to add a quart every other week so he said why change it? I'm sure nobody wants to be behind him.

When I worked at the dealership back in Buffalo we had a couple customers that would screw there engines up from never changing the oil. It was always fun telling them that they need a new engine because they haven't changed the oil since they bought the car.. :gr_jest:
