[QUOTE="Boidster, post: 14764070, member: 131189"] Glad I caught up before my 15K oil change. I've got a gallon of the AMO ("Premium") 10w40 left, but I'll switch to the 0w-40. Previously my UOAs had some high lead and UB recommended moving to the 10w30. It's got the AMO in it now and I'll be doing a UOA for that. We'll see if the trend holds. [COLOR="#999999"]One question - it's probable that the car will make it to a track day or two this year. Engine is stock. Ought I to replace the thermostat with the 170* version? Is there any downside to that replacement for a car that is 99% street driven? UB's new oil recommendations state "any thermostat" so I think the 0w40 is the right choice regardless.[/COLOR] Nevermind - found this thread: [url]http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?768790-Thermostat-For-GT500[/url]. I'll have to be swapping for stock since I do drive in sub-50 temps in fall/winter. [/QUOTE]
