The only thick oils here are the 50 wts.

Most of these are Euro oils based on the specs (ACEA or more).
 
Bob, Are you OK?? You know how we all greatly appreciate this but, this costs a fortune! Don't break the bank for us. A UOA on 1 of those would be great but all of them?

Re Artem: That is an incredibly dickish thing to say.

Compared to my other hobbies (guns and car stuff), this really isn't very expensive.

I took no offense to what artem said.

Thanks, I and im sure a lot of others really appreciate you doing all the VOAs! If you are thinking about doing more after this round, I would love to see more of SN rated oils!

^^Me too! I`ve noticed the Autozone near me always trades out their shelf space between Syntec 20W50 and 5W50. They`ll keep either/or for a couple of weeks,then they`ll switch back. I wonder why??
 
Bob, thank you very much for taking the time and money to do this for the community. It's truly appreciated, and so is your taste in engines oils for these tests.

Bob what lab are you using, any chance it'll be OAI/Polaris. It's cheaper and you'll also get oxidation and nitration baselines for UOA's.
