i run royal purple during events.. but for daily driving i run castrol syn... you will get so many different opinions i just don't like to even get into it.

I run Mobile 1, thats just my personal choice. when I first finished my swap. One of my buddies said I should just throw non-syn in for the first couple hundred of miles. Change it, throw non-syn again till about 1000 miles. Change it then go ahead and throw syn in. He said it's a little thicker and would help get anything bad out faster. Have u heard of that Biggamehit? He's a mechanical engineering major so I just didn't ask question haha

yeaup... thats how most people break in motors..... i have never personally broken in a fresh engine yet, but thats what i hear from guys who i know know their stuff when it comes to building engines.

so put in regular oil in for the first thousand and then switch to syn??ive never broken in an engine either so im new to this....

well i just straight threw in synthetic right when i finished my swap, with a quart of stabilizer...

i normally do 1 qt lucus and 3-4 qts oil...on break-ins its better to use non-synth because it will flush the motor easier because of its thickness.

after 1k miles i go 3-4qts synth and 1 qt lucus stabalizer.

lol no you only break in the motor when its brand new or just rebuilt and you use natural oil because it allows more friction then synthetic oil allowing the motor to break in properly

Alkaemy

i coulda sworn i said use non-synth on break-ins...meh

slidinRB

ok....well im not rebuilding the internals and its not a brand new motor or anything...so it should have already been broken in.so i should be fine running synthetic....

HKST04Z

yeah lol. forgot to mention my motor still had about 43,000kms on it so its not like i had to do a break in....it just needed fresh oil XD

slidinRB

ok, awesome.what kind of oil do you use?and what stabilizer?

HKST04Z

castrol 10w 30 fully synth. dont remember the stabilizer
