    86 sounds good. 70 could be on the cold side.

    What motor is it? Yeah that sounds too cold to me too, and if it's supposed to be higher that motor will wear out quicker.

    The guy i bought my car off was running motul (mind you its only a 3sge) and the engine runs like silk. I had been recommended to try Royal Purple (anyone heard of it?).
    The distributor who also runs a dynogave me this story that all the v8 teams use it, the only reason they all run around with mobil 1 plastered on everything is cause it pays their wages and was getting 7-8hp gains(on an engine dyno) when they swapped from mobil 1 to royal purple, swapped back to mobil and lost 7-8hp. anyone heard of royal purple be4?

    Surely have heard and use Royal Purple engine oils . I like it alot although alot of people have found it changes viscosity alot easier then other more known American synthetics as you get more miles on the oils
