The 0w40 technically should still meet the Ford Spec for my car right? I believe the 6th gen Mustangs is APN SN, which the M1 0w40 meets/exceeds.

good to know, that was my concern too running Redline when my car sees a lot of time on the street as well.

Is there a downside to running a 0 w for low temp viscosity since OEM recommends 5 for low temp? I live in California so I will never see snow and the lowest I will see is probably 35 degrees.

Were you tracking your 5.0 with the Valvoline 5w30?

I don't understand much about Euro spec oils. Can you explain what are the primary differences between euro spec oils and say oils for American cars? Is there a downside to using euro spec oils in American cars?

Hi guys, I am a new member. I have a 2017 Mustang 5.0. it is mainly a weekend car (likely with most drives being spirited driving in the canyons) that will also see some autocross/track time few times a year. Due to the car mainly being driven "hard" when it will be driven on weekends and on...
