    what oil for the hot rod

    Perhaps you misread that, I’m not saying a 5w can be better for storage than a 10w. I’m saying having the benefits of 5w probably doesn’t outweigh having a better storage oil that may only come in a 10w. If you don’t start the car when the 5w is needed it’s moog.

    what oil for the hot rod

    Mobil 1 Supercar 5w-50 is corvette and zl1 approved so corvette or srt similar application imo. Why get a 15w-50 if a 5w-50 is available? Won’t a 5w act like a 15w at a specified temp just the 5 can go colder ie has a colder pour point ? What benefit does a 15w have over a5w ?

    what oil for the hot rod

    She is rowdy to say the least….. past few years I’ve ran driven HR6 year round. Was looking to try to improve over it but maybe I should leave well enough alone. Summer hot idle is 950rpm and still made about 35-40 psi

    what oil for the hot rod

    looking for a winter weight of 5 or 10 as apposed to 15/20 ...... car is started at and below freezing temps to move out of the garage or to give her a winter leg stretch. I can find the 5w or 10w weights but am concerned on the storage and cold start protection.

    So the great debate on what oil i should start using. Looking to go to a synthetic due to oil temps, and broad ambient temp use. Summer oil temp was getting close to 270s on a 7qt moroso. Car is a 1991 ford mustang with a built aftermarket engine. She gets decent use but not weekly and less...
