There really is no perfect weight. It depends on many factors including accessories whether OEM or aftermarket, height, and density. There probably is an upper limit but that can change depending upon how much alcohol on consumes prior to shopping.

If you're the JI type and would rather pay $300 for some java from hot barista, please ignore this.

I know LN Engineering recommends Motul 8100 and Joe Gibbs DT40. Twice the price of Mobil1.

Not sure that's the best though. What about moderate temp start protection concerns?

8100 is not twice the price of M1with this rebate, it well over 3 times the price (Amazon price).

I've heard that Jake gets a kick-back for every bottle of Joe Gibbs sold by LN. Is that true?

He should be, and deserves to be. He developed this oil with Lake Speed at Gibbs. He should be getting a royalty on every quart sold.

I must be losing it. I can't tell if this post was meant to be serious. Either:
A - very subtle sarcasm and well played
or
B - should really join the 997 forum

How did you determine "confirmed to work"? Walmart is not on the list...Assuming you submitted it around the time of the original post there is no way you got the rebate all ready. I am assuming that you used the website online submission and that it was accepted pending review which is different from "confirmed to work". Can you clarify?
