Any UOA (used oil analysis) experts want to review and share their thoughts???
Engine fully rebuilt in 2008. I think about 15-16K miles in those 16 years since. Definitely not a daily driver.
No issues whatsoever. Runs great, good oil pressure - stock style oil pump, 50+ psi above idle, hot curb idle still has over 12+ psi @ 600rpm. No knocking, no ticking, nothing.
I just had the oil pan off and found no abnormally sloppy rods so I didn't pull any caps.
I may have had a thrust issue at time of 1st oil analysis as I was fighting a C6 to AOD swap, and don't think I had the converter spaced right.
I do run fuel additives, specifically Sta-Bil all the time ... (edit - MOD) Lately I've used Liqui-moly intake valve cleaner additive as the valves are a bit loaded up.
I don't really want to window the block but this thing *currently* gives me no troubles to 5K rpm regularly.
P.s. i have run leaded fuel (cam 2 & 100LL avgas) previously but it's been years and well before 1st analysis.
