All values not listed are zero. Viscosity @ 210 is 49.1, @ 100 is 7.01, flashpoint is 395F, fuel hwy, Occasional WOT and hard acceleration after warmed up. Blackstone commented the engine was wearing very nicely and to extend interval to 4,500 miles, which I will do. Any comments welcome.
 
Looks great. Oil sheared down, but no wear showed up in this type of analysis.

How many miles on the engine?

The Stanger has only 14,000 miles and I have put 10K of those on the car since buying it last February. Pablo, I have no idea, Blackstone indicated anything below 0.6 as within normal range.

It's a tad high for lows miles and could just be break-in materials. Watch your air filter and intake tract. Maybe do another analysis at 30-40K
 
Thanks, Pablo, that sounds like a good plan. This car is so much fun to drive it shouldn't take too long to put some miles on her!
