[QUOTE="UnleashedBeast, post: 10875095, member: 112023"] :lol: True story stkjock, but I will help him on his way. I have discovered that Mobil 1 5W-50 is 100% true synthetic, and does not contain and blended in refined petroleum. Six Speed has this as the current fill in his Shelby, and I am eagerly awaiting the UOA to see how well it performs. Please allow me to supply you with a few web links for better understanding of how 5W-50 lubricants are not the best choice for the Shelby. They are too viscous for street use, push the oil pump bypass open easily at low rpm, and it's even worse if you are using a cooler thermostat with lower fan settings. Here are good links to start with. If you have any more questions, drop me a PM.
