I'm running Royal Purple 5w30. Concerned that it might be too light for our Louisiana temps.

People had problems in the past with modded motors running royal purple. It's hard to say it was from the oil or not though

Amsoil z rod is what a lot of people are using with success on nodded motors.

So if u want a high performance oil I would suggest Amsoil.

not sure if its good or bad but I run shell rotella SAE 30 in all my air cooled engines; mud motor, lawn mower, and my generator.

the Scamsoil guy talked me into a case of this - it seems not to turn black as soon other oil in my air cooled engines

I use AMSOIL in everything. Just dumped the oil in my Civic after 15k and it wasn't even black.

OP, no harm in bumping up to 10w-30 during the hot months.

$27.50 versus $10.00 per oil change, that leaves enough for a 12 pack and a bag of beef jerky.

Does anyone use the Valvoline VR1 conventional? I've been using it for 120 hours now.
