Good report
nice and you are running pretty high hp as well, correct?

I’ve used Blackstone for years on piston aircraft engines. I love seeing the oil trends & knowing that I have a healthy engine.
Thanks for doing this

I switched to Liquid Moly Leichtlauf 5W40 from Mobil 1, and I swear the engine got quieter and smoother. Maybe all in my head, I don't know. This is my first report.

I just wanted to post this in this thread to add to the pool of UOAs.
My last one is attached. I switched to 5W-50 M1 with this drain (I'm in FL) and it will be interesting to see how things change next Feb.

Okay I’m sold on the switch to M1 5W50 from 0W40. Where is everyone finding the best price?

Napa has 5.99/qt sales. Might coincide with Mobil rebates also. No 5w50 in 5 gal jugs.

Generally keep an eye out for one of the periodic NAPA online sales. I’ll go look but I think I paid around $6 a quart.
Edit: $5.79/quart, 16 quarts, Mar ‘20.
