What weight and viscoccity motor oil is everyone using with their TT or SC set up?

 

Vortech S/C, Oviedo Florida, AMS OIL 10-W30.

 

wilmington de, aps st, 10w30 mobil1

 

Vortech SC 10w30 Mobil 1 full synthetic

 

Greddy TT built motor Mobile 1 15w-50

 

What's the best oil to use for the Chicago winters for a Vortech? Yes...yes, I will be driving it a little in the winter. I currently use Mobil 1 10w-30 but that was pre-SC.

 

Since it get very cold I would use 5w-30 synthetic(mobile 1, castrol syntec, etc) just not mobile high endurance because it has too many anti-wear agents that will cause foaming in an FI application(hasn't been proven but if you plan on changing every 3k their is no use). I would get the oil tested at blackstone labs to make sure that the zinc content isn't too high(indicating a higher viscosity is needed). Hope I did more help than hurt.
