Don't know why I can't bring myself to run thin oils.... Dave and Teddy both
wanted 30wt and that's what we ran...

I'm sure the last mph is in there somewhere... just feel there has to be
something to be said for oil that's going to be there long enough to
actually draw some of the heat away from the bearings...  but I don't have
anything scientific to back it up.... just a gut feeling.... This while I
put 10-30 mobile one in the Vette per spec's...
