Wow!

Website doesn't list any 'Meets or Exceeds' for the PCEO 5w40. Heck, there's no 0w40 or 5w40 listing for PPCEO or PPPCEO either.
If/when it appears, I'll consider blending it with 10w30
Thanks for volunteering the Analysis.

the 10w-40 shows to be SP and still has an HTHS value over 4

You would be mixing, not blending.

Also, why? Every single UOA of HPL has shown it’s done the job required of it admirably; why would you not just run the oil grade selected as intended? There’s nothing wrong with the 10w30 that would be “improved” by mixing in some of the 5w40. You’ll still have a 10w rated oil. The No VII Euro 5w30 I used actually thickened into the 40 grade viscosity range; so again, why bother mixing? You’ve bought a great oil, let it do its thing.

Looks great
I have a stash of HPL PCMO & PPCMO I look forward to using.
