Had to pull my motor to do some replacing of a few seals and some other small stuff, so I just wanted to find out what the best weight of motor oil I should use with my engine when I refill. New rebuild, with hydro lifters.
Thanks By the way, my 2.0l with single weber carb has been getting 26mpg average in city and my 1.8L plus upgrade, w/ duel webers has been getting 26-27mpg average. haven't put either on a good highway miles to find out what they can really get yet. I'd say that's pretty good. |

My hydraulic lifters work a LOOOOOOOOOOOOT better with Brad Penn 20/50 than they did before.
