I find it odd that it passes the GM 4718M, because I'm 95% sure that in order to pass that spec (which is for the new LS1/LS6 Corvettes) one of it's criteria is that it must be a 5w30 synthetic oil.

Pretty good first time we 'Timkened' it but after sitting for a month it didn't do so well. I hope to be in Melbourne next weekend and will retest and report.
