Holy snikes....! I leave for a few days and you guys have reaaly got a debate going. Soooo...will the silicate levels in the G05 be good with the seals in the Vette? Or....?? SR PS. I never imagined there was so much I didn't know avout automotive fluids.....thanks for everyones input to help...

So I assume that G-05 would interact fine with the aluminum, provide adequate silicates, blah, blah, blah for the GM 427 with no adverse effects? SR

Recently bought a couple of 2 ton floor jacks and checked the fluid level, which was low. Asked my son to fill them up and he did but grabbed the synthetic DOT 4 hydraulic brake fluid to top them off. Sooo....am I screwed or is it OK or just drain and refill? Thanks......SR

After reading some of the Dex-cool stories, got me thinking. I have a '08 Vette with the 7.0L engine. Is it advisable to change to G-05 or a Peak without the 2eha or stay with the factory recommendation? Not worried about warranty issues at this time. Thanks, SR

Thanks all.....with all the input and of course the reading I've been assigned with, was thinking of a 0w-30w oil since I live in SoCal? As for running oil to maintain warranty, well that is gone as I just had to modify vehicle. Concern with RP was additional moly in oil that may harm cat's...

Been trying to figure this out myself as I'm new here and as usual I'm more confused. So here's the question for you oil guru's......... Have a newer Z06 LS7/427ci N/A with about 7,500 miles. It is normally street driven but see's the drag strip occassionaly. Puttin down over 500rwhp and hits...
