That is correct and also works as good as anything i have ever used in E85 engines that break down much easier from fuel dilution..

i agree about a brake in oil. i ran a 10w40 non syn for like 100 miles. then went to 15w50 and have had good results with my motor so far.
I apologize for calling you a jackass. I'm not gonna lie though, that statement made me upset. I guess I deserved it though.

I was thinking if you skim off the oil on top of the home made peanut butter you might get the engine to run on it for a little bit.. LOL

Excepted. And I apologize for being a smart ***.

Sparky chunky blend wont work. It eats up the bearings pretty bad. Mix it with Mayo if you need a higher performance blend. U could always mix in some relish as it is softer then the chunks in chunky blend peanut butter.


Moral of the story. Ask your engine builders what motor oil to run.

thats post had made me laught many times ha..

so i think im going to do this, VR1 No syn 20w-50 break in 1,000k then go to Amsoil 20w50 full syn

now the question what really is the proper way of breaking in the motor?
i was thinking about just driving it under 5PSI or less shifting under 3,500 RPM for 1,000 miles then turn up the boost a little bit

20 miles on it, check for leaks then dyno 600+hp is how we do it..
