Those are both good solomon. Redline and valvoline vr1 will do a great job too. VR1 will be your cheapest option.

We have to speak in code. To answer your question. <watz up> I recommend roto fab. It has excellent fit and finish and will yield 10 hp who knows maybe more.

LME specified Joe Gibbs LS30 in my build. I would be surprised if they would recommend different in yours. That said they know what they are doing so I would go with what ever they say.

Yeah mobile 1 is out. It doesn't have the zinc you need.

I think you'll find VR1 to be priced right around the same as mobile 1. Zeke runs the 20/50 conventional. They also have a 10/30 synthetic.

That's good bud. I'll have to trade my CAI right away!

Serious note what oil are you guys running in general? My first change since I bought it (used) should be coming up. I'm thinking the full synth amsoil.

58x is normally the right one. I don't know why garrison has a 24x.
