I recently purchased a '95 SC w/ 99K on it. The previous owner ran nothing but Castrol Full Synth 5~30 in it. I thought that I would start a thread on this simple question with many answers. First, I was interested in what other SC Owners are running in their cars. Full Synthetic, Blended or Petroleum(Standard) Oil? Is there one brand that most prefer? In high heat/ stress conditions, I've seen Castrol turn to a very watery viscosity. In similar conditions I've seen Valvoline Racing hold up great. Also had good luck with Kendall, but these experiences were always with 20-50 viscosity. Do others regularly change the viscosity they use between winter/summer? Someone from New York may have totally different preferences from someone in Phoenix. I live in Palm Springs, and have seen it hit 122 here!!
Isn't 5~30 going to thin out awful bad under that kind of heat?
Is Full Synthetic really worth the extra money?
Please list the brand and viscosity you like to use, and whether you use Full Synthetic, Synth Blend, or Regular ole Oil. Whats your preference? Also, please list if you are a daily driver, or a strip only SC owner.
Since we are all performance enthusiasts, enjoying high output engines, (that reads as ~HORSEPOWER, Baby!) I thought it might be an interesting subject: To discover if there is a common thread of experience that"most" use.....
