What oil grade can we use?

[FLtrackdays]

Do you know the oil clearance for the B58TU main and rod?

I don’t

My recommendation:

If anybody is looking to run heavier weight oil on our cars. I would run 0w30 or even 0w40 for heavy track usage.

Agree, not that my agreement matters, but 0w30 is listed as acceptable in the manual as well.

What's a good 0w30 ???

I use SAE 90 in my motor.

Why so thin? I use the Lucas stabilizer as oil. You know, the stuff you got to heat up just to get out of the bottle. Thicker, the better!

That oil change must take for…ever.

At the current temps, around 6-7 days. It's not bad. Just flop that bottle in the fill hole and come back the next day to swap it out.

I'll put 10 qts of assembly lube in the motor next time.

I just can't compete with that. You sir clearly will be running the best oil possible. No one can question that.

Lucas oil stabilizer is your friend.

Okay, now I feel better ‍🩹. Will be happy with my 0 or 5-30 that is in route to my house as we speak. And not too thick despite how schweaty my ass is in the seat. This car needs somewhat lower viscosity to get in all the nooks and crannies (including main and rod?).
