Andy

I have been using Castrol Syntec in one of my Sprites for over 4 years.
No problems, 60 psi OP even when hot, never less then 50 PSI even at
idle in summer traffic.
The engine was rebuilt in 1983, I switched to Syntec in 95 because this
engine never leaked a drop of oil. (all my other LBCs drip to some
degree).
I plan on switching my Bugeye over to it as soon as I think the recent
engine rebuild is "broken in".
