is chevron delo 400 synthetic 5w 40 a group 4? or is it a group 4 and 5?...is this oil all pao?
this oil is chevron's answer to delvac 1 5w 40...is one better then the other?
 
Its a group III with all the goodness of HDEO additive package. Pours down to -45 degrees.

I am using it right now in one of my cars and will be going to it in the other one when I have finished the arx rinse.

CHEVRON DELO® 400 SYNTHETIC
SAE 0W-30, 5W-40
CUSTOMER BENEFITS
Chevron Delo 400 Synthetic heavy duty motor oils
deliver value through:
• Easier cold weather starting due to excellent low
temperature pumpability.
• Lower oil cost — Low oil consumption as proven by
excellent deposit control on piston crownlands. Outstanding
oxidation stability contributes to long oil service
life.
• Reduced operating costs — Excellent soot dispersancy
and wear control extend engine life to overhaul
and help defer the cost of investing in new
equipment. Filters are kept clean longer, assuring
maximum filter life.
• Reduced inventory costs — The wide operating
temperature range allows for the use of one oil in all
seasons. One oil may be used in four-stroke gasoline
and all naturally aspirated or turbocharged electronically
controlled low emission diesel engines. Compatible
with nonsynthetic engine oils.
• Improved profitability — Unsurpassed protection
against valve train wear maintains maximum fuel
economy. Extended oil drain capacity means equipment
is in service longer and generating revenue.
• Longer engine life — The combination of exceptional
soot dispersancy and excellent low temperature
pumpability will lead to less wear at startup and during
all operating conditions.
FEATURES
Chevron Delo 400 Synthetic heavy duty motor oils are
multipurpose 100% synthetic lubricants formulated for
use in gasoline and diesel engines, torque converters,
gear cases, and hydraulic systems operating in subzero
arctic-type temperatures.
They are manufactured using stable synthetic base
stocks. These oils utilize highly dispersed viscosity index
improvers that promote stable viscosities and soot dispersancy
between oil drains.
FUNCTIONS
Chevron Delo 400 Synthetic heavy duty
motor oils have excellent shear stability
and are designed to not shear down to a
lower viscosity grade in most applications. Thus, engines
are well protected during maximum drain intervals.
Shear stability can be a problem with nonsynthetic SAE
0W 30 and 5W 40 engine oils.
Chevron Delo 400 Synthetic heavy duty motor oils maintain
excellent deposit control. They retard the formation
of sludge, deposits, and varnish associated with low and
high temperature operation, thus keeping engines clean.
These oils also provide outstanding wear, rust, and corrosion
protection.
With their low viscosity, Chevron Delo 400 Synthetic
heavy duty motor oils assure consistent engine starting.
The improved low temperature pumpability also reduces
wear. These oils maintain excellent oil circulation once
the engine has started and is running.
Chevron Delo 400 Synthetic heavy duty motor oils
reduce oil thickening and have excellent oxidation and
thermal stability. They reduce oil consumption because
of their low volatility.
