You should run 5W-30 in it all the time... stay away from 10W-30...

And I run 0W-30 Mobil1 year-round btw... for those who want details, let me know.

Mobil1 0W-30 is thinner at startup than the 5W-30... obviously.

But the 0W-30 is actually slightly thicker at running temperature than the 5W-30...

That being said, who wouldn't run this year-round? (Assuming you don't live in Death Valley).

It's either amzoil or brad-penn for second. I know guys that drag race hemi's and they didn't like the rp and are sticking with brad-penn.
