10 days vacation used between two weekends is 14 days off. I know only ten are paid but that is a pretty good vacation for a new hire.

Valvoline VR-1 10W-30 isn’t a “limited detergent oil”. It is SM or SP certified and suitable for manufactures oil change intervals in cars of the OP’s vintage.

Someone is bound to say: “But oil is at 200 degrees in an operating engine”. Oh…I just did 😉

Do it! Video it! This Has to be more scientific than: Can your engine run on Nacho Cheese dip instead of motor oil?

Very high output / CC, very high RPM, gearbox thrashing the oil and all is fine…. But small block Chevys are foaming themselves to death on the same oil? I’m confused…you?
