Found Performax 100 5W50 which I believe Johnny said was a real syn (POA?) and one of their best products unlike the newer Group III syn stuff. Johnny/anybody care to comment? It's A$66.50 a 5-litre jug trade price.
Found Pennzoil Performax 100 5W50!

US the real thing. I'm sure Johnny said it was one of Pennzoils best ever products. I'll give it a try anyway.
Hi Rick,
I saw M1 SS 5w-50 and D1 priced the same at a major Mobil owned gas station in Brisbane today -$69.95 for 5ltrs!!!
AutoBarn had the same M1 range near $89!

There is 1L containers of Pennzoil 5-50 synthetic sold at the local Sunoco here in Canada, but the back label says nothing about ACEA ratings...so I'll pass up on trying it.
Does the Auzzie version mention anything on the label about what qualifications it has, ACEA, VW, etc.??

I wouldn't pay $70 for M1 5w50....my local Mobil servo sells 0w40 for $69.95 for 5 litres.
Today US$1 = A$1.29683. Dr. T i'll see what ratings the Pennzoil has. I've been hoping Johnny would chime in with specs.
Here's the data sheet . It's in the third column . Typo has it as a 5w-30 .

Motorbike can you tell if it's PAO or hydrocracked or whatever??
Bought a 5-litre jug today. Rated SJ/CF and ACEA A3, B3. I'm led to believe its PAO, anybody know for sure?
I'm guessing <6600 @ -30C is cold flow capability. Is this a good figure for a 5W50?Pour is -51C.
Bought some US quart bottles rated SH, SG. Museum pieces? How old would they be?
$69 Aussie is about $50 US. So that works out to about $10 US a litre/quart. That's why I use dino.quote:

Seeing as this thread keeps meandering............
As of yesterday,
Delvac 1 5 litre jug $48.15 incl. GST, 20 litres $188.20 incl. GST at Lowes Petroleum, Tamworth Depot.
I think I paid $303.00 for my first 20l 26 months ago.
FWIW, A$48.15/5litres, less 10% tax = A43.72= US$33.41/5litres = US$25.29 US gallon = US$6.32 quart.
