royal purple?
 

i wana try royal purple. what type should i get like 0w30 ect.

and btw, where in south plainfeild are you?

Use the wt your engine calls for...

edit: off topic chit chat moved to your thread in the intro section.

i use Mobil1 15-50 in my car. gonna switch to a lighter weight for the winter though.

RP 10W 30 FTW!

If your engine called for 5W30 then use that oil. The first number is for when the engine is COLD. It quickly goes to the high number when the engine warms up, so especially in the WINTER it is better to use it because it will allow the engine to turn over easier!

How many miles are on your engine? Higher milage engines can develop leaks from synthetic oil due to the smaller molecular structure.

i have a new lt1 engine with about 25k on it. 190 on body but 25 on engine

It will leak from the low oil sensor in the pan. :evil:

Use good old dino oil.

When I pulled my top end apart, after 70k of synthetic oil, everything was clean, no gunk or anything. Now that may be the case with regular oil too, but I say synthetic helped.

i am all for synthetic. i am a Mobil 1 man.

I use Royal Purple 5w30 in my car.

not sure what to do now lol. royal purp or mobil 1.....

I switched from M1 to RP, go RP 5w30 for the winter, 10w30 summer

Royal Purple is better than Mobil 1, hands down.

ok thanks lol

I run royal purple 5W30 in the TA

I would use the weight that is on your oil cap, also I don't know how easy it would be for you to get it or if you care ,but I use Brad Penn oil. It was highly recommended to me from an engine builder I know and even people I race with because I have a high performance engine. My $.02

i gotta look at the cap when i get out of school. im not even sure. shows how much i know haha

Also depends on mileage too, on older motors you may want to think of bumping up to a heavier oil.

I use 20w50. I kinda like seeing 60 psi or so of oil pressure.. Then again, Josh told me to use that sooo I'm going to stick with what the enigne builder said..

Also ifyou race your car a lot, use the heavier weight oil. If its just a DD use whatever is on the cap.

Every engine is different. I use 10/30 or 10/40 in my race engine. There is no need to run a heavier weight for racing purposes. My $.02

if your gonna spend the money on royal purple why not get amsoil?

Goto advance, $30 for 5 quarts of any synthetic (including rp) and a mobil 1 filter.
