Your use case seems to be pretty low in demands on that engine. Why not explain that to the builder and see if the have an alternative suggestion. It's not as if you plan to tow a 10,000 pound trainer over Colorado mountain passes in 100 degree weather. It seems as if this is a pleasure vehicle. Now that being said, HPL has a number of interesting offerings in 5w-40 and 10w-40. I cannot see a need here for a 20w-50. @Pablo might also have some opinions and suggestions for an Amsoil alternative.

Thanks for your input sir. I'm a C-17 IP here at the AF schoolhouse. I've followed your aviation content here for some time, thanks for sharing from your experiences and expertise.

Definitely a pleasure vehicle, it's a 1 ton drivetrain in a half ton body and I don't use it for much more than towing a couple thousand pounds across town ... or maybe across country when I PCS.
