Re: [Amc-list] Oil Weights

Frank, Nick, and others:

I have a 401 Spirit drag car which does see some street time, and I run 
15W-50 Mobil 1. Recently I gave a ride to a friend who happens to be an 
experienced AMC V-8 builder, someone whose judgement I thoroughly trust. He 
saw my oil pressure and said to change to 10W-40 (he thought it was too 
high). It never goes below 40 PSI (mechanical gauge). I have the Milodon 
sump with external lines to the oil pump. I plan to switch to diesel 15W-40, 
both reducing the viscosity and getting the additives only found in diesel 
oil now. Comments?
